An OTC Benefit is a great supplemental benefit for Health Plans to offer to their members.

Over-the-Counter medications and products are very popular in the US, with the average US households spending about $338 per year on OTC products. It is estimated that this is approximately 26 trips to a store per year to purchase OTC products. The OTC industry is about $40 billion in size and grew by about 2.8% during 2014. Using OTC products is an affordable treatment option for consumers and the entire US healthcare system because it allows people to self-treat for minor ailments and cuts down on unnecessary medical costs.
