at 60,000 pharmacies nationwide including
Prescription Savings Rx costs are skyrocketing & fewer medications are covered on today’s plans. Save an average of 46% at 60,000 pharmacies nationwide including CVS, Walgreens & more. Save 10% to 85% on most prescriptions with the local pharmacy program. It's simple to use. The member simply shows the membership card and prescription to the pharmacist. The pharmacist calculates the discount and the member pays the lower price. No other forms required. * 10% to 85% savings on most short-term and acute care medications. * Use the Online Drug Price Check Utility ( to find the price of prescriptions at participating locations by zip code. * Over 60,000 locations, including independent, national and regional chain pharmacies nationwide. Disclosures - Pharmacy discounts are Not Insurance, and are Not Intended as a Substitute for Insurance. The discount is only available at participating pharmacies. Q. What can I expect to save with this membership? A. Prices will always vary on prescription drugs and therefore it is impossible to estimate specific dollar savings through any non-insured drug program. The Neighborhood Pharmacy program offers 10% to 85% discounts on acute care medications. Our average savings is 46%. Savings cannot be used in conjunction with other discount or insurance cards. Q. Do I get a discount on every single drug at the neighborhood pharmacy when I use my Membership card? A. Not necessarily. Drug stores, like hardware and grocery stores determine their own pricing structures. Due to large discounts from manufacturers, some drugs may already be priced at or below the PBM's discount price. The PBM network pharmacies have agreed to sell prescription drugs at the contract price, or their "usual retail price" whichever is lower. Q. Why didn't I save any money at the participating local drugstore? A. More than likely, you ordered a long-term maintenance medication versus a short-term acute care medication such as an antibiotic or pain-killer. Most pharmacies use long-term, maintenance medications as "loss leaders" and price these drugs at or below cost. They do this so that their customers will assume that all their prices are low. It's a marketing strategy. The pharmacy realizes that for long-term medications, you'll shop around in order to get the best price for a medication that you may be taking for the rest of your life. As the consumer, you are led to believe that this pharmacy has low prices on all their prescription drugs and other items. Our pharmacy program has contracted with independent and chain pharmacies nationwide to offer you a discounted price that will normally save you 10% to 85% on short term medications. However, in order to draw customers, many pharmacies opt to price their prescriptions lower than the contracted price. In this case the member gets the lower of the two. Normally, they use high profile maintenance drugs for these "loss leader" price reductions such as Prozac, Zantac, and Premarin. Q. What if the Pharmacist doesn't recognize the card's name? A. Always make inquiries in person and be sure to bring your card with you. When the pharmacist sees the Pharmacy Benefit Manager information on the card, the pharmacist then understands which program you are on. * Pharmacy discounts range from 10% to 85% on most medications.

We have shown that our Engagement Program works to get employees activated. It doubles usage! beniebuzz s Every member who we receive an address for will be sent the “beniebuzz” s.

The set of benefits promoted in their will match the benefits in their card. Promotional Flyers To help employers educate members on using these services (and managers on how to discuss this with employees) – we have a wide range of flyers / posters. Social Media For your employees who prefer interacting via facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter - - we are happy to oblige. We’ll have some fun along the way, too!

*If Core BuyUp or Voluntary
Simple Setup / Admin Electronic List Bill & Census + Payroll Deduction *If Core BuyUp or Voluntary This will likely be the simplest carrier setup the employer does. It merely requires a one-page form (completed with an e-signature) and a census of the employees getting the card. Note we only need employee information – because we send a family packet to everyone, and they add their family members afterwards. There is a (new) second tab on the spreadsheet – with instructions on how to complete the census. Simple! If the group is offering the add-ons as an option (“core buy-up”), or if the whole program is pure voluntary, we have a one-page form for the employee election.
