In our ongoing mission to provide high-value benefits that are most helpful for our members’ overall health, we would like to provide you with additional resources for comprehensive learning on one of our most exciting plan additions for 2024:

Wellcare Spendables^TM Card

Select 2024 plans will now include the Wellcare Spendables card. This program replaces the previous Flex Card benefit program and will be offered across all states.

Benefit Highlights

• Members will receive a pre-loaded allowance on a Visa debit card that they may use towards their over-the-counter (OTC) benefit on health products at over 55,000 participating retailers such as Walmart, CVS, Kroger, Publix, and more.
• D-SNP members may use their monthly allowance for healthy foods, pay-at-pump gas, or assistance with utilities and rent.
• Select D-SNP and other plans will also include cost-share assistance on out-of-pocket expenses for dental, vision, or hearing benefits.
• Depending on the member’s plan, benefits will be managed as a combined allowance from one single purse (all D-SNP plans and select additional plans) or managed as a separate allowance from two purses that members may choose to use toward their plan’s eligible benefits.

Amounts and coverages vary by plan. Please take a few moments to review all of the Wellcare Spendables resources, including a new supplemental benefit video and FAQ resource.
