Discount healthcare programs differ from healthcare insurance in several important ways. Discount health care plans are available to anyone. Unlike insurance, you are immediately qualified. There can be no denial for health conditions, you may begin using services immediately, and there is no paper work to process. Services are unlimited throughout your membership period for the same low membership fee. Getting started is easy.

Your membership fee entitles you to unlimited services throughout the year with no maximums on services. You may receive services as often as needed and still receive the same pre-negotiated discounted rates. In comparison, insurance requires costly deductibles, imposes limits on the number of times you can receive services and establishes annual maximums on services.

Simply enroll online anytime, and you will be accepted in 24 hours regardless of your age or pre-existing conditions. Once you have located a provider in your area using the Provider Services Directory (to access provider search, once you click on this link, click on the "Preview" button located mid way down on the right side of the page), then make sure you return to this page to place your order so you will receive our special discount price for the OptumHealthSM Allies Discount Health Plan. A membership card will arrive by mail in 7-10 business days. Once you receive the membership card, you can make an appointment, and show your card and the confirmation when you arrive at the provider's office. You just pay the pre-negotiated discounted rate at your time of service. You'll love how you save money using these plans. Don't get caught paying full price for your health care.
