Your personal pathway to better health - with rewards at every step

What if every healthy choice you made came with a reward? With Discovery Health's Personal Health Pathways for members of Discovery Health Medical Scheme, your journey to better health is more motivating, personalised and rewarding than ever - with Ðiscovery Miles and instant prizes waiting in the Discovery Health app.

What if getting healthier came with more rewards?

Imagine this: you take the stairs instead of the lift, hit your daily step goal, or finally tick off that overdue health or dental check. A few seconds later, your phone lights up with a notification - you've closed your health ring or you've closed your exercise ring and earned Ðiscovery Miles or an instant reward!

That's the everyday magic behind Discovery Health's Personal Health Pathways (PHP) - a programme that combines science, technology and motivation to help you live healthier, with real rewards for real effort.

What exactly is Personal Health Pathways?

Personal Health Pathways is a new, personalised health management programme from Discovery Health. It's built on science-backed insights and designed to make better health feel achievable, measurable and - yes - instantly rewarding.

The programme analyses your health data and goals to give you personalised real-time health recommendations, like scheduling a health check-up, improving sleep habits, or increasing your daily movement. Each completed action helps you close your health ring or exercise ring - unlocking rewards, milestones, and measurable progress toward long-term health.

Why do we reward you for being healthy?

Because motivation works best when you can see it and feel it. Discovery's model of shared value means you benefit instantly when you take steps to improve your health.

Every time you close your health ring or exercise ring, you can:

• Earn instant rewards in the Discovery Health app to redeem at one of the partner stores in the Vitality network - including Dis-Chem, Exclusive Books, Sportsman's Warehouse, Woolworths, and more.
• Or wait for Rewards Wednesday, when you can play the Vitality Active Rewards gameboard to earn Ðiscovery Miles on the Discovery Bank app.

What are Ðiscovery Miles and how do they work?

Ðiscovery Miles is our rewards currency and is more valuable than cash! You can earn Ðiscovery Miles through Personal Health Pathways, Vitality Active Rewards and other healthy behaviours across the Discovery ecosystem. They turn your everyday health choices into real value you can use.

As a Discovery Bank client, your Ðiscovery Miles is and works like a rewards currency, giving you the freedom to:

• Spend them online or instore at over 45 Ðiscovery Miles retail partners
  • Save them for bigger rewards
  • Get up to 15% off every day when you spend Ðiscovery Miles on online and instore home, fashion and lifestyle retail partners
• Use them to buy discounted deals on Vitality Mall, accessible in the Discovery Bank app
• Enjoy up to 30% off on Miles Ð-Day, which happens on the 15th of every month
• Monetise them! Your Ðiscovery Miles can be converted into cash in the Discovery Bank app.

Every time you complete a recommended action or close a ring, you're not just improving your health, you're building a balance of Ðiscovery Miles that you can use on the things that matter most to you.

How does it fit into your daily life?

The best part? You don't have to overhaul your lifestyle. All it takes is small, consistent steps that count as you reach every recommended goal.

Say you:

• Book your annual screening tests in the Discovery Health app.
• Go for your morning run or yoga session.
• Track your heart rate through your wearable.

Each action feeds into Personal Health Pathways, building momentum toward your next reward. It's a personalised health journey with built-in encouragement - and every click, move or action takes you closer to feeling (and earning) better.

Why members and doctors are loving it

When GP Dr Jane Semugga recommended a pap smear through Personal Health Pathways for her 24-year-old patient, she didn't expect it to be life-changing. The results revealed pre-malignant cervical cells, which were caught early enough to treat before becoming cancerous.

Dr Semugga quickly put together a care plan with follow-up tests, a gynaecologist referral and the HPV vaccine. "I'm certain that without Personal Health Pathways, I wouldn't have been able to convince this patient to get a Pap smear," she says.

Her experience shows how small, guided actions on the platform can lead to life-saving interventions, proving that Personal Health Pathways not only rewards - it's about better health outcomes.

How does personalisation make it more powerful?

No two people share the same health story and now your rewards reflect that. Personal Health Pathways uses your health data and goals to tailor the actions, tips and challenges that make sense for you.

Whether you're managing cholesterol, improving sleep, or simply aiming for more energy, your Personal Health Pathways grows with you and adapts as you improve. It's healthcare made personal, powered by the Discovery ecosystem that connects Discovery Health, Discovery Health Medical Scheme, Vitality and Discovery Bank in one seamless experience.
