Not an Insurance Plan

Prescription Discount drug card are not insurance plans. Prescription discount drug programs are completely different than prescription drug insurance, which is very similar to medical insurance. Prescription discount drug programs will give the client a card that they present to the pharmacist for the discount. Most discount cards are available at no cost and offer savings to patients who may lack insurance for their brand or generic medication costs. When you go to the pharmacy to fill your prescription you present the discount card to the pharmacist. With that card, the pharmacy gives you a certain discount on the cost of the drug. That discount may vary from drug to drug, and brand verse generic medications.

Prescription Discount Drug Card and Part D

If you already have Medicare Part D you may qualify for some extra help like a discount card from the manufacturer of the prescription as an example to help cover some of the extra costs. There are so many different discount prescription drug programs out there, how do you choose which one to use?

Access to a discount drug card

With all the Discount Prescription drug programs out there what are the useful ones to use? Last summer we came across the best program hands down. With this program specifically, we have seen the most beneficial savings on prescriptions for clients. This discount prescription program specifically has a great opportunity for insurance agents to make an extra commission too. Agents can now offer a competitive alternative to GoodRx, SingleCare, Optum Perks, ScriptSave WellRx through GlicRx.
