What benefit do members receive from their OTC allowance?

Members benefit from the OTC allowance by being able to purchase qualifying over-the-counter items. This allowance is designed to provide financial support for everyday health-related products that do not require a prescription. It expands members' access to necessary health supplies, which could include items like pain relievers, cold medications, or first-aid supplies.

This benefit is particularly valuable as it promotes self-care and preventive measures, helping members to manage their health more effectively. The allowance specifically focuses on items that meet the criteria established by the program, ensuring that members can utilize their funds in a way that contributes to their overall wellbeing. Access to over-the-counter items makes it easier for individuals to address minor ailments or health concerns without needing to visit a healthcare provider for every need.
