How much will I save?
While savings on each prescription may vary, you can save an average of 20% off of the pharmacy’s regular retail price for commonly-prescribed drugs whenever the prescriptions are not covered by insurance. This is an average; your exact savings can vary depending on the prescription drug and the price you have paid before.
Will I always receive the lowest price?
Yes. You will receive the best price available to you. Sometimes pharmacies will price a particular medication lower than the discount rate provided by the card. If that happens, you will receive the lower price.
Can I find out the discounted price before going to the pharmacy?
Because prices can vary by location, only the actual pharmacy can tell you the exact price of the prescription. You can look up an estimated price for medication at https://naco.advancerx.com/advpcsrx_MemberSite/index.jsp. You can also get an estimate by calling 1-877-321-2652, toll-free.
Do I still need insurance?
Yes. The prescription discount card does not replace having insurance.
Can I use it as often as I need it?
Yes. There are no restrictions on how often you can use the card.
Can I use my card to get discounts on over-the-counter products and non-prescription medications?
Not usually. However, discounts are available for many diabetic supplies.
Can I use it to receive a discount on medication for my pet?
Yes. If your pet has been prescribed a medication, you may receive a discount by taking the prescription to a participating retail pharmacy.
How is this prescription discount program different from traditional prescription insurance?
This plan is not insurance; it is a prescription drug discount program. The card provides immediate discounts at the pharmacy. Upon presenting your card to the pharmacist, you will pay the lower of a discounted price or the pharmacy’s regular retail price. There are no claim forms to fill out and no limit to the number of times you can use the card. These discounts are available only at participating retail pharmacies.
What happens if I lose my card?
Please call 1-877-321-2652, toll-free.
Can I use my prescription discount card with my current insurance benefit to reduce my costs?
Your card cannot be used in conjunction with insurance. However, you can use your card to purchase prescriptions that are not covered by insurance.
