The Benefits of Supplemental Benefits
Supplemental (additional) benefits are just another perk of a Medicare Advantage plan. Christine Leo from Cigna’s Medicare Advantage team is here to tell us what they are and how they can help you. (Length: 00:07:20)
Over-the-Counter (OTC) Program

How do I use my quarterly allowance?
You can use your full quarterly allowance anytime during the quarter. OTC orders are limited to one order per customer per calendar month. You can place your order anytime during the month. Unused balances will not roll forward each quarter —they must be used before the end of each quarter.
What can I order with my quarterly allowance?
You can order items such as bandages, aspirin, cold and sinus medicine, and vitamins and minerals. Review your OTC product catalog included in your Welcome Kit or end-of-the-year renewal mailing, or
