SilverSummit $25 Flu Shot Reward: Once Per Season (September–April)

The reward

$25 on your My Health Pays card for getting a flu shot. The reward row lists no age requirement.

The condition most pages leave out

It can be earned once per flu season, September through April. A second shot outside that window, or a second one in the same season, does not pay again.

Where you get the shot matters

Payment is triggered by a claim being submitted for the vaccination. A free community vaccination event may not submit a claim to SilverSummit, in which case no reward is paid even though you were vaccinated. If earning the $25 matters to you, get the shot somewhere that bills your plan, and ask first.

How the My Health Pays card actually works

Rewards load onto a My Health Pays prepaid card. It is not a card you can use anywhere Visa debit is accepted — SilverSummit says so plainly, and this is where most members lose value.

Permitted uses: utilities, transportation, telecommunications (phone and internet), childcare, education, rent, and Walmart in-store.

Not permitted: grocers, gas stations and pharmacies are not on SilverSummit's approved list. The card also cannot be used for alcohol, tobacco or firearms.

Funds expire — this is how people lose money they earned

Your balance expires 90 days after your coverage ends, or 365 days after the reward was earned, whichever comes first. Medicaid coverage lapses at redetermination more often than for any other reason, so spend the balance rather than saving it.
