If you are a member of either a United Health Care Medicare HMO Plan 1, 2, or 3, you have an over the counter benefit as part of your health plan.  Although each plan has different quarterly benefit amounts, you can use the same form to look up products and find out what is available to you. Please refer to your specific plan benefits to find out exactly what your OTC benefit amount is.  You need to be aware that the quarterly over the counter benefit not transferable and cannot be used once a given quarter has ended.  This means if you do not use your benefit for each quarter you simply lose it.

In fact, when you chose to use your over the counter (OTC) benefit you must do so in one single order.  This means you should plan what you will need by looking through the United Health Care OTC catalog before the end of each quarter and order everything you think you will need at once.  United Health Care will only allow you to place 1 order per quarter.
