Yes, Costco does accept OTC cards, which are often used for health-related purchases.
Costco allows members to use Over-the-Counter (OTC) health care benefit cards for eligible purchases. This includes items such as vitamins, first-aid supplies, and other health-related products that qualify under the plan.
Keep in mind that not all products in the store are eligible for OTC card purchases. It’s important to check whether the item you want to buy is covered by your specific OTC plan.
