Prescription Not Covered by Medicare or Your ACA Plan? There May Be a Simple Solution
One of the most frustrating moments at the pharmacy is finding out that a medication you need is not covered by your Medicare plan or ACA health insurance, or that you must pay the full price because you have a high prescription deductible.
This happens more often than people expect. Many health plans have formularies that exclude certain medications, or they may require you to meet a deductible before prescription coverage begins. When that happens, the pharmacy price can feel overwhelming.
The good news is that there is another option.
We now offer a free prescription discount card that can help lower the cost of many medications at thousands of pharmacies nationwide. In some cases, the discount price may even be lower than what your insurance plan would charge.
The card works by providing access to negotiated pharmacy discounts. You simply present the card at the pharmacy counter when you fill your prescription. There are no fees to use it, and you can check medication prices before you go to the pharmacy.
If you would like to see how much your medication may cost with the discount card, you can check prices online here:
Many people use the card when:
A medication is not covered by their Medicare or ACA plan
Their insurance plan has a high prescription deductible
They are between coverages or waiting for a new plan to start
A pharmacy cash price is simply too high
