Prescription Savings Card

Savings programs and discount prescription companies negotiate discounts on bulk drug purchases with pharmacies. People in need of prescriptions can then save on medication prices by using a free “Prescription Savings Card” or mobile app provided by the savings program. If and when you use this discount prescription card, the pharmacy then compensates the discount program. That’s the fee the pharmacy pays to the discount program in exchange for them sending a new customer. Pharmacies then benefit from a store visit, and if patient is uninsured, they sell a prescription they probably wouldn’t have otherwise.
