The YourRxCard Program covers all FDA approved brand name and generic prescription medications.

What is the typical savings amount?

For March 2008 the average savings was 39% off retail pricing for brand and generic drug prescriptions. The total dollar savings , realized by cardholders, for that time period was $2,165,028.23 off the retail pharmacy pricing. Prescription submissions resulted in some level of savings 91% of the time.

How much do the Prescription Discount Cards cost the member?

The YourRxCard Program is absolutely FREE. There are no premiums or deductibles associated with this program whatsoever.

How do I use the Prescription Discount Card?

1. Select a pharmacy: YourRxCard is valid at over 56,000 network pharmacy locations nationwide. In most cases, your current pharmacy will be part of our network. However, if they are not, we have made it very easy for pharmacies to join.

2. Submit your prescription: Present your prescription to the pharmacist. If you need to transfer a prescription, bring your empty prescription bottle or label with you to the pharmacy.

3. Present YourRxCard: Your card’s unique code provides the pharmacist with the appropriately discounted prescription price. The price on the prescription is based on the pharmacy's contracted agreement with YourRxCard.

4. You Save: Your savings will be clear once the pharmacist enters your filled prescription into the register. Whether the lowest discount price is the YourRxCard price, your present insurance program's price, or the pharmacy’s already discounted price, you are GUARANTEED to receive the LOWEST price available!

Who is eligible to participate in the YourRxCard Program?

Membership to the YourRxCard Program has no requirements. Unlike insurance programs, there is no income, age, pre-existing condition, deductible, or waiting period restrictions. The program is designed to help patients nationwide who do not have prescription drug coverage or who have coverage but are subject to large deductibles, large co-pays, formulary limitations, dosing limitations, gaps, and/or any cash out-of-pocket expenses.

How can I be assured I am getting the lowest price?

The discounted price may vary by as much as 75% depending on the drug and the pharmacy discount rate contracted with YourRxCard. While pharmacy prices may vary from week-to-week and by the geographic location, the patient is guaranteed the lowest price available regardless of whether it is the YourRxCard price, your present insurance program's price, or the pharmacy’s already discounted price.
