Ben, a Highmark member, faced a lifelong need for a support program due to a congenital heart defect and chronic alignment issues. As a busy professional, husband, and new father, finding time for traditional in-person support was a constant struggle.

His solution came through a Highmark email: the Virtual Joint Health, Thrive by Sword program. He quickly found the virtual, at-home care to be a game-changer. The program allowed him to prioritize his health without disrupting his family schedule, enabling him to consistently work on his physical well-being.

For Ben, the Thrive by Sword program provided the crucial flexibility and expert guidance he needed to manage his health effectively, leading to less pain and improved overall well-being.

You can find the program on the My Highmark app or MyHighmark.com.
