How It Works
Answer three quick questions — your ZIP, what you care most about, and the best time to reach you. Takes about 60 seconds. No health questions.
A real person from The Trusted Consultants — not a robot — reaches out, usually within one business day, to walk you through what fits your state, your budget, and your life on the road.
Choose the plan that works for you, or nothing at all — zero obligation. Your membership auto-drafts to line up with how drivers get paid, so you stay covered mile after mile.
Two plans. Pick your protection.

Everything in Essential — plus real protection if the road gets rough.
about $12.49/week, auto-drafted to fit weekly driver pay
Supplemental protection added
Adds supplemental insurance (accident, AD&D, term life) — limited benefits, not major medical.
Accident, AD&D, and term-life products are supplemental and provide limited benefits for specific covered events — they are not major medical or comprehensive health insurance. Benefits, premiums, and eligibility vary by state. See full disclosures below.
Three quick questions. A licensed advisor takes it from there — a real person, not a robot.
Forward Benefits is not an insurer. We connect you with licensed advisors from The Trusted Consultants.
From the road
Real drivers, real coverage. Names and states shown; benefits vary by state.
Been driving 22 years with no benefits. Signed up on a Tuesday, had a doctor on video by Thursday from a truck stop in Amarillo. Wish I’d done it a decade ago.
The accident coverage paid me cash after I slipped on ice loading. No fight, no runaround. That check covered my truck payment the month I couldn’t drive.
Was between loads for six weeks and couldn’t afford COBRA. Signed up for Essential to keep the telemedicine going and kept refilling my meds at the truck-stop pharmacy. No health questions, no drama.
Coverage underwritten and administered by:
Third-party names are used for identification only and do not imply endorsement of Forward Benefits. Coverage is underwritten by Aflac and administered by PIOPAC Fidelity Insurance, a licensed Third-Party Administrator. Benefits, premiums, and eligibility vary by state.
Built for how you actually drive
If you drive for a living and nobody hands you benefits, this is for you.
You live in the cab and no employer offers you a thing. Get real coverage that travels every mile with you.
You run your own business, so benefits are on you. We make it simple and affordable to protect yourself and your family — auto-draft fits weekly pay.
Your carrier’s plan leaves gaps. Stack on supplemental accident and telemedicine for the coverage your job forgot.
Switching carriers or waiting on the next load shouldn’t mean going uncovered — and gap periods are when COBRA hurts most. Membership stays with you, not your employer. Month-to-month, cancel anytime.
You’re the one they count on. Guaranteed-issue life and AD&D means they’re protected even when you’re a thousand miles away.
Questions drivers actually ask
The questions drivers actually ask us.
It’s real. Forward Benefits is a benefits program made available to members of an association, with coverage underwritten by Aflac and administered by PIOPAC Fidelity Insurance, a licensed Third-Party Administrator. Enrollment is handled by licensed insurance professionals from The Trusted Consultants. Forward Benefits itself is not an insurance company — we connect you to licensed advisors so you can get covered.
A licensed advisor from The Trusted Consultants calls you — usually within one business day, at the time you picked. They’ll walk you through the options available in your state, answer your questions, and help you enroll if you want to. There’s no obligation and no pressure. If the plans aren’t right for you, they’ll tell you that. Prefer to talk now? Call (866) 915-5499.
The Forward Essential membership is $4.99/mo and Forward Shield is $49.95/mo — about $12.49 a week, auto-drafted to line up with how drivers get paid. Both are month-to-month with no long-term contract. Specific insurance premiums and benefit amounts vary by state, so your advisor gives you the exact numbers for your situation before you commit to anything.
No. Submitting the Benefits Check or calling us only means a licensed advisor reaches out to talk through your options. There’s zero purchase obligation. You can hang up or walk away at any point — no pressure, no tricks. The consultation is free; you only pay if you choose to enroll.
Forward Essential’s telemedicine, Rx card, and dental/vision savings are discount programs — not insurance. They give you access to pre-negotiated rates that you pay directly. Forward Shield adds supplemental insurance products (accident, AD&D, and term life) underwritten by Aflac that pay benefits for specific covered events. None of it is major medical or comprehensive health insurance, and it doesn’t replace an ACA plan. Your advisor explains exactly what each piece does.
No health exam and no health questions to get started — the accident and life protection in Forward Shield are guaranteed-issue. That means a driver who’s been told “no” before can finally get a “yes.” Your advisor confirms the details for your state.
No. This is personal supplemental and health-adjacent benefits for you and your family. It has nothing to do with your commercial driver’s license, your motor-carrier authority, or your truck’s physical-damage, cargo, or liability insurance. Accident coverage pays you, the member — it is not liability or cargo coverage. It’s completely separate.
Advisors are licensed across all 50 states, but not every product is available everywhere, and benefits, premiums, and eligibility vary by state. That’s exactly what the Benefits Check is for — your advisor confirms what’s available where you drive.
BenefitHub is a members-only savings marketplace included with your membership. Drivers use it for real, everyday savings — Verizon phone plans, hotels along the route, theme-park and attraction tickets for the family, tires and auto service, and thousands of restaurants and retailers.
PIOPAC Fidelity Insurance is the licensed Third-Party Administrator that handles billing for the association and Aflac. If you enroll in Forward Shield, your monthly or weekly auto-draft shows up as PIOPAC on your bank statement. It’s expected — not a surprise charge — so you know exactly what it is when you see it.
You can cancel your membership anytime — no long-term contract. To stop texts, reply STOP to any message or call (866) 915-5499. Your consent to be contacted is never a condition of getting information or coverage.
