Health reward credit cards are a great way to put that plastic pay for your healthcare needs. However, as it with all other reward credit cards, the terms and conditions, especially pertaining to the reward programs, their eligibility, limitations, preferred partners and way the rewards can be redeemed should be given special attention and all the facts should be clarified before you start using the credit card. As the variety of offerings increase with increasing competition, we should expect a number of banks coming up with more health and fitness related credit cards.
