Business Wire IndiaNationsBenefits, the leading supplemental benefit and healthcare fintech platform for managed care organizations, has announced that Albertsons Companies, Inc.’s United Supermarkets grocery stores have joined its network of grocery and over-the-counter (OTC) retailers. This direct point-of-sale integration is powered by BAS, NationsBenefits proprietary item restriction technology. This expansion allows health plan members to use their plan-funded supplemental benefit cards to shop at United Supermarkets, Market Street, Albertsons Market, and Amigo locations. NationsBenefits’ cards are already accepted at other Albertsons Cos. Stores, including Albertsons, Safeway, Tom Thumb, Randalls, Vons, Jewel-Osco, ACME, and Shaw’s.
“It is an incredible opportunity to expand our reach and partner to provide greater access to nutritious foods where members and customers are accustomed to shopping,” said NationsBenefits CEO Glenn Parker, M.D. “We are excited to expand our partnership with Albertsons Cos. and the grocer’s United Supermarkets stores to provide convenient, nutritious food and over-the-counter access for Medicare Advantage and Medicaid members across the nation.”
Members with eligible health plan-funded benefits can purchase qualified grocery, OTC, and wellness products with their health plan’s flex card. Members receive a personalized prepaid card that gives them quick and easy access to funds that are loaded monthly, quarterly, or annual. This provides members convenient access to more nutritious options in their daily lives to improve their overall well-being.
“Through this new partnership with NationsBenefits, our guests at United Supermarket stores will enjoy expanded payment options for essential groceries and wellness products to support their health and wellness,” said Tony Crumpton, Chief Merchandising Officer at The United Family. “This collaboration underscores our commitment to ensure that individuals in our communities have convenient access to the items they need.”
