What is a Medicare Flex Card?
Proceed with caution!!
Flex cards are debit cards beneficiaries can use to purchase medical equipment and items. Typically linked to a flexible spending account, these cards are a benefit linked to qualifying health plans throughout the nation.
These cards, issued by private insurance companies, are only available on specific plans. Also, the cards have spending limits that vary by plan and carrier. The flex card benefit is not a common feature of Medicare Advantage plans, but you can find it in a handful of plans nationwide.
