Why did i get a pebt card in the mail

A PEBT (Pharmacy Benefits Card) is a card that provides prescription medication coverage for individuals who are eligible for the program. There are several reasons why you may have received a PEBT card in the mail:

  1. Medicaid eligibility: If you are eligible for Medicaid, you may receive a PEBT card as part of your benefits package. Medicaid is a government program that provides health coverage to low-income individuals and families.
  2. CHIP (Children's Health Insurance Program): If you have children who are eligible for CHIP, they may receive a PEBT card as part of their coverage.
  3. Medicare: If you are eligible for Medicare, you may receive a PEBT card as part of your coverage. Medicare is a government program that provides health coverage to individuals 65 and older, as well as those with certain disabilities.
  4. Employer-sponsored health insurance: Some employers offer PEBT cards as part of their employee benefits package. If you have an employer-sponsored health insurance plan, you may receive a PEBT card as part of your coverage.
  5. State-specific programs: Some states have their own PEBT programs, which may provide prescription medication coverage to eligible individuals. If you live in one of these states, you may receive a PEBT card as part of your benefits package.

If you're unsure why you received a PEBT card, you can contact the issuing organization or your healthcare provider to find out more information.
