Today no one can deny that the Apple Watch is the king of wearables. A device that not only serves to control the time, as a clock would do, the Apple Watch is used for many other things: productivity, telephone, monitoring our health, tracking our workouts ...
Un endless possibilities among which Apple has recently wanted to highlight health monitoring. And it is that we have on our wrist the best ally against any mishap that we may have in our day to day. Such are these possibilities that the news has just reached us that Medicare insurers in the United States would be offering discounts for the purchase of an Apple Watch to their policyholders. After the jump we give you more details.
We would be talking about the medical insurer Devoted Health, a private company that is within the government health conglomerate Medicare in the United States. These would be helping their policyholders to allocate part of your policy to the purchase of an Apple Watch and thus obtain discounts. And we would be talking about nothing more and nothing less than ad$ 150 discount from the Wellness Bucks plan, a discount that would be applied on the 399 dollars that the Apple Watch Series 5 costs in the United States.

If you fall to the ground, the Apple Watch will help you, it is one of the slogans of the campaign, and it is true, a device like the Apple Watch can help many older people, and not so old. Let's see how long it takes to copy this new model of insurers that use technology in other countries.
