Prescription Discount Card Programs

 

Prescription assistance programs give out Rx cards to the community so that people can buy prescription drugs at a lower cost. This is a practical way to get more affordable medication when paying out of pocket.

 
Most pharmacies in New York participate in the program, and anyone can use these Rx cards. Unlike insurance programs, no income, age, pre-existing condition, deductible, or waiting period restrictions exist.
 
Visit the website of the specific Rx program to find specific medications and see how much you could save with an Rx card. To get an Rx card, please find below a list of prescription assistance programs:
 

 
After obtaining the Rx discount card, simply hand it to the pharmacist. It’s worth mentioning that those with insurance can use the card for medications not covered by their plan or if the discount results in a lower cost than their co-pay. You can also ask your pharmacist to compare prices for you.
