Welvie
You don't need to be thinking about surgery right now to benefit from Welvie or to get a $25 gift card
In addition to your health plan benefits, you also have access to Welvie – a self-guided online program that offers suggestions on how to talk with your doctor about treatment options.
Less than half of patients say their health care provider asks them about their goals and preferences.1
And people may not know which questions to ask their doctor. It's important to have these conversations with your doctor to help determine what's best for you, ensuring you understand the benefits (and risks) of all your treatment options.2
While Welvie's focus is surgery, the lessons you'll learn in the program can be applied to any health issue that requires working with your doctor to understand treatment options.
Learn more. Earn more.
What's more, you'll receive a $25 gift card when you complete the first three steps of the Welvie My Surgery program and a short survey. And it's free to Health Net members.

Health Net Member's Perspective
- Welvie has given me a better respect for my general practitioner and their role in the process, specific interview questions for a specialist, nice collection of all available alternatives and the ability to drill into them for the amount of information I need. Thanks!
- Welvie has made me look more critically at the entire decision-making process leading up to a surgery and general health care decisions. Thanks for providing it.
- After using the program, I feel more informed and comfortable in talking to my doctor.
- I'm young and healthy and didn't think I needed this. Now, because of the Welvie program I think I am more likely to explore the other nonsurgical treatment options before agreeing to surgery, or at least talk with my doctor why they think surgery is the best decision for my problem. I feel empowered!
- Very informative. I learned a lot about other options. And it cleared up a lot of questions I actually had. I will make a more informed decision now.
- The program was very helpful. I thought I had no other options, and this program shows me I have options. Good job in providing this to us.
