Medicare OTC Benefits
This is a reminder to use up your second-quarter over-the-counter (OTC) credit before the third quarter begins on July 1. At that time, your third-quarter credit will be active, and any remaining funds from the second quarter will not be carried over. Your OTC credit can be used for a number of items—including pain relievers, cold medications, and sleep aids—so I do encourage you to take advantage of this benefit each quarter.
