Over-the-Counter (OTC) Benefits

Attention Valued Partner,

Helping our members live better, healthier lives is always our topmost priority. With this in mind, we wanted to share a quick reminder about how members can access a key benefit that can make a big difference, our Over-the-Counter (OTC) benefit. This benefit gives members $10 - $550 per benefit period of OTC items from a plan-approved list of products (benefit coverage varies by plan).

Members in plans with the OTC benefits can order covered products by mail order (phone or online) or in-store. When shopping from the catalog, items are shipped to members’ homes at no additional cost.

Key Highlights:

  • Benefit dollars are reset at the beginning of each benefit period. Any unused benefit dollars at the end of each period will NOT rollover to the next period.
  • Mail orders placed over the phone or online are limited to three (3) per quarter. Mail orders are always delivered with free shipping from our OTC vendors!
  • At InComm and CVS retailers, members may make an unlimited number of in-store purchases at participating retail locations. 

Benefit Details by Retailer:

*Participating retailers for InComm include CVS, Walgreens, Duane Reade, Walmart, Dollar General, Family Dollar, Rite Aid and select independent pharmacies. Please call 1-888-682-2400 (TTY: 711) for more information.
