“Our partnership with SASid is another way that Trucker Path is focusing on making the lives of the nation’s truck drivers easier,” said Chris Oliver, CMO at Trucker Path. “These new insurance and health service offerings for Trucker Path app users continue our commitment to looking at things from a driver’s perspective and finding new ways to help enhance their quality of life.”

Through its partnership with SASid, Trucker Path is offering app users access to a range of insurance options at reduced rates. There are programs for short term health, major medical, accident, dental, vision, telehealth, prescription drugs, and life insurance. Support is available through a call center dedicated to Trucker Path users. Those participating in any of the health plans receive a free drug discount card.
Users receive the first two months of telehealth services free of charge. Using a smartphone, tablet, or computer, participants can easily attend appointments with a health care practitioner, a benefit for truck drivers on the road.
“As truck drivers continue to support our economy, having the ideal health, life, and other types of insurance at an affordable price is essential,” said Greg Hellmich, VP of insurance at SASid. “In addition to offering Trucker Path users a complete line of products and services, we will provide access to efficient, user-friendly tools so they can build insurance plans that are specific to their needs. We are pleased to partner with Trucker Path and make highly affordable insurance available for their community of truck drivers.”
