  • Prescription Discount Cards: What Pharmacists Need to Know

by LaNea E. Bartel, 2023 PharmD Candidate, Elizabeth M. Soter, 2024 PharmD Candidate, Sara A. Witt, 2022 PharmD Candidate

"The use of prescription discount cards is becoming popular as patients are concerned with rising drug costs. The benefits of these cards are widely advertised, and many patients use them to reduce out-of-pocket costs. Some aspects of the cards are not commonly known, such as the effects on pharmacy reimbursement and workflow; whether the cards can be combined with insurance; or what patient data are required to use them. It is important for pharmacists to be informed about the cards when recommending them to patients as the use of prescription discount cards continues to grow."
