ThriveFlex is available on PriorityMedicare Thrive and PriorityMedicare Thrive Plus

The ThriveFlex benefit includes your over-the-counter (OTC) and wellness benefit. These allowances are kept separate and will have their own dollar allowance.

Your OTC benefit gives you a quarterly allowance to spend on health and wellness products like aspirin, cold medicine, bathroom safety devices and modifications, as allowed by Medicare.

Your wellness benefit gives you a one-time annual allowance to use toward fitness facilities, fitness equipment and nutrition support services.

You’ll receive your ThriveFlex card in the mail that will be pre-loaded with funds and ready to use on the day your plan begins. 

OTC allowance amounts vary by plan.  Please note, unused OTC allowance does not roll over. Quarterly allowances expire on March 31, June 30, Sept. 30 and Dec. 31.

PriorityMedicare Thrive: $60 quarterly

PriorityMedicare Thrive Plus: $50 quarterly
