Journeys 

What are journeys? How do I do them?

Journeys are all about taking daily steps toward improving your health and wellbeing. For the length of the journey, you’ll stop by each day for pro tips and proven strategies on a given topic.

You can be on up to 2 journeys at a time. You’ll see journeys we think you might like in the “Start a routine” section on the home screen. After you’ve started a journey, you’ll see it’ll show up each day in the “In progress” section as a reminder to swing by for your daily tips and health know-how.

We’re always expanding our library of journeys, so keep checking back to find ones that interest you. And if you’d like to see a journey on a specific topic, let us know!

How do I participate in a journey?

You’ll see journeys we think you might like in the “Start a routine” section on the home screen. After you’ve started a journey, you’ll see it’ll show up each day in the “In progress” section, as a reminder to swing by for your daily tips and health know-how.

Can I be penalized for not doing a journey?

No, you will never be penalized for not participating in a journey. Journey participation is a choice — you are the boss when it comes to your health.

Do I get insurance discounts for doing journeys?

Points you earn by completing journeys (and other actions in the app) will apply toward the 6,000-point requirement for your premium reduction. 

Can I track my activity from third-party apps?

We are constantly expanding our ecosystem of partners to enhance the Well experience and allow you to continue using the apps you like. Well currently integrates with both Apple Health and GoogleFit from a broad range of devices. This gives you the ability to incorporate some of your wearable data into your Well experience. Have a specific app or device in mind that is not supported by Apple Health or GoogleFit? Let us know and we’ll add it to our to-do list.

AskWell

What’s AskWell? What can I chat about?

AskWell is our in-app chat to get guidance and support from real, live Well Guides.

You can chat about things like:

  • I want to be healthier, how should I start?
  • Can you help me find a doctor?
  • What journeys are available to me?
  • Do I really owe this much for the procedure I had?
  • Is a specialist covered by my insurance?
  • And more…

It works just like texting, and you can always come back and see your full chat history. And sometimes we’ll reach out to you right in AskWell to lend a helping hand.

And just like the rest of Well, it is included as part of your membership and at times you can even earn rewards by chatting with a Well Guide.

Who are Well Guides?

Well Guides are real people that are here to help you reach your health goals and navigate the complexities of healthcare. You can chat directly with a Well Guide via AskWell.

Our Well Guide team is also supported by health and pharmacy specialists to help provide expert guidance when you need it.

What hours is AskWell available?

You can chat with a Well Guide on Monday-Friday from 8 a.m.–9 p.m. ET, excluding holidays.

Outside of those hours, you can always leave a message for a Well Guide. A Well Guide will get right to responding as soon as we are open.

Are my conversations secure and private?

Yes, they are. What you tell us in chat is never shared with your employer or insurance company. See our privacy policy for more details.
