Eligibility Requirements for OTC Cards

Are you wondering if you qualify for an OTC Card? At The Care Advisors, we’re here to break it down for you. Understanding the eligibility requirements can make the application process smoother and more straightforward.

Who Is Eligible?

Age: Generally, you must be a senior (65+) or a younger adult with a qualifying disability.

Medicare and Medicaid Status: To be eligible for an OTC Card, you typically need to be dual eligible, meaning you must be enrolled in both Medicare and Medicaid.

Income Limits: Some programs may have income restrictions, so it’s essential to check the specific guidelines of your health plan.

Enrollment in Specific Health Plans: Not all Medicare or Medicaid plans offer OTC Cards. It’s important to review your plan’s benefits or consult with us at The Care Advisors for guidance.

At The Care Advisors, we have helped many families navigate these requirements, ensuring they receive the benefits they deserve. If you need personalized assistance or have questions about your eligibility, please reach out.

"When Mom got sick, it got harder for her to do everyday tasks like cooking, cleaning and laundry. Having me there really helped to ease her tensions on so many levels."
