In today’s digital age, healthcare has never been more convenient. People can easily access the care they need, get advice from a medical professional, and purchase medications with just a few clicks.
Additionally, many are turning to the internet for other ways to save money on prescription drugs. With many websites and apps offering discounts and other offers, it is now easier than ever to reduce your drug costs without compromising the quality of care.
Healthcare.com recently launched an Rx Savings Card, designed to provide cheaper drug prices to those paying for their medications in cash. These cards are 100% free to use and do not require insurance.
- How Do They Work?
- The process is generally the same for all prescription drug cards. Participating pharmacies in a discount card program accept different discounts on various prescriptions. Typically, larger pharmacies choose to participate in prescription discount plans to build patient loyalty.
- Where can I use my Rx Savings Cards?
- You can use the savings card across 42,000 pharmacies in the U.S. You can use this card at popular pharmacies, including CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Rite Aid, Publix, Safeway, and Costco.
- What if I have Medicare?
- Rx Savings Cards are free for Medicare beneficiaries who pay out of pocket for their medications instead of using their drug plan.
- Why should I use an Rx Savings Card?
- You can save up to 80% on your medications. These are especially helpful for those with high deductibles plans and copays or limited drug formularies. These cards are also helpful for those who don’t have insurance. These cards sometimes even beat the copay price for those with insurance.
- How do I use Rx Savings Cards?
- Once you have signed up for your discount card, present it to your pharmacist each time you need to fill or refill a prescription. You can save up to 80% on your medications. Unlike insurance, there is no co-pay; you pay the discounted price.
- What If I Have Insurance?
- For those with insurance, your pharmacist can apply your card to your prescriptions to see if your price will be cheaper than your co-pay.
- If the rate is lower with your card than with your insurance, your pharmacist will use the discount card instead.
