We've blogged about the popularity of giving gift cards during the holiday season, but here's something we haven't seen before: Healthcare gift cards. Givewell.com is promoting healthy living with their product, a prepaid Healthcare Visa Gift Card. They say it's an ideal gift for college students, elderly parents or expectant mothers. Gift-givers can choose any amount between $25 and $5,000 to load on the card, and the card itself costs $4.95. The healthy gift can be used to pay co-pays at doctor's offices and pharmacies in addition to dental care, vision care, memberships at health clubs and even cosmetic surgery.
The card can be purchased online or by calling 877-850-3774.
