What is Sidecar Health?

Unlike traditional insurance, which sits between the patient and the doctor, our members pay for care directly. As a result, our members can see any doctor and may save 40% or more† on health care costs. 

Simply put, Sidecar Health is insurance the way it should be:

• Affordable: Our members may save 40%† or more by paying doctors when they receive care using their optional Sidecar Health VISA benefit card.
• Transparent: Our members use the Sidecar Health app or website to see the estimated Benefit Amounts their plan will pay for a medical service and compare that to what other Sidecar Health members have paid providers for services in their area.
• Easy to Use: Our members can see any doctor they want and upload claims easily on our user friendly app. Our world class Member Care team is also on standby every step of the way.
