About the Plan
What is a Prescription Drug Savings or Discount
Card?
Prescription
drug discount cards (also known as "consumer cards," "point of sale cards," and
"100% co-pay" cards), allow prescription drug users to save money on all types
of prescription medications. At the time of purchase, members simply present
their card at a participating pharmacy to instantly receive substantial
discounts on their prescription drugs. It's that easy.
How Do Prescription Drug Savings Cards Work?
Prescription Drug Savings cards contain special computerized instructions that
can be read by the pharmacy's computer. When the card information is entered,
the price on the prescription is discounted based on the pharmacy's agreement
with St. Anne's Credit Union. This type of cutting-edge technology allows
consumers to save money without encountering any hassles on the checkout line.
Who Needs a Prescription Drug Discount Card?
Any
individual with limited or no prescription drug coverage can benefit from a
prescription drug savings card. Instead of paying full price for medication,
card members can save money whenever they purchase prescription drugs. People
who already have insurance coverage may still find the card useful, as it can
discount medications that are not covered by their health plan.
What Kind of Savings Are We Talking About?
St. Anne's Credit Union
offers substantial discounts on all brand-name and generic drugs. How
substantial? In brief, we save members an average of 15% on brand drugs and 40%
on generic drugs. These savings increase even more on generic when members
utilize our mail-order pharmacy.
