I have seen carriers offering up to $300 per month depending on the zip code and the eligibility of the Medicare member.
Most of the times you will need to have Medicare and Medicaid to qualify for the $3600 yearly prepaid visa card But in some states some carriers will offer on 2023 around $480 yearly as part of their rewards program for their members that complete easy healthy activities assigned to them so everyone is eligible as long they decide to participate on the Healthy lifestyle program.

No. It will not be considered as an income this is an extra supplemental benefit from the Medicare Advantage plan for their qualifying members.
To check if this benefit is available to you for residents of the following states: Florida,TENNESSEE, GEORGIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, Texas, Louisiana, New Jersey.
