Using Your OTC Benefit
With your SCAN over-the-counter benefit, you have more flexibility to buy how and when you want. You can pick up items while you run errands or have them delivered right to your door. It’s up to you.
Ordering in-store is easy with your OTC card. You can use the card to buy items just like using a credit card. Depending on your plan, your card balance will be refilled either monthly or quarterly. You’ll use this card for all your purchases and there’s no limit to the number of items you buy or orders you place each allowance period.
Check your Evidence of Coverage to see how much your OTC allowance is.
Shop OTC at retailers
Use your SCAN OTC card at more than 7,000 CVS Pharmacy stores nationwide. At the store, check out like you would regularly, using your SCAN OTC card like any other credit card.
See our FAQ for more information on what to know about activating your card, making purchases in stores and what stores you can shop at.
