2023 OTC & Flex Allowance

Exciting news! Starting January 1, 2023, your over-the-counter (OTC) benefit allowances for KelseyCare Advantage will be allotted quarterly. This means that you have more dollars up front to spend on qualifying over-the-counter products.

Gold, Silver, Silver Freedom, Silver Community, & Gold Community Plans

Members of these plans will receive a white Visa card like the one shown here, that can be used towards approved OTC purchases. Any unused balances do not roll over. Check your 2023 Evidence of Coverage for details about your OTC benefit allowance.

Platinum & Gold Freedom Plans

Platinum and Gold Freedom plan members can expect to receive a blue Visa card, like the one shown here. 

Plus, your card will include a $500 annual Flex allowance to use toward any service or product costs that you might have for dental, vision, or hearing provider visits. For example, you can use your Flex allowance to help pay for things such as hearing aids, prescription sunglasses, contact lenses, or for provider copays.

Any unused balances do not roll over and the flex allowance and the OTC allowance cannot be combined. Check your 2023 Evidence of Coverage for details about your quarterly OTC allowance and your annual Flex allowance.
