Cheyenne Regional Medical Center partners with Laramie County to offer Prescription Drug Discount Program
County residents take advantage of free discount cards to save money on prescription drugs
CHEYENNE – Laramie County launched a discount card program in June 2006 to help consumers cope with the high price of prescription drugs. The county is making the free prescription drug cards available under a program sponsored by the National Association of Counties (NACo) that offers an average savings of 20% and in some cases up to 55% off the retail price of commonly prescribed drugs.
The cards may be used by all county residents, regardless of age, income or existing health coverage and are accepted by most of the pharmacies in Laramie County. There is no enrollment form, no membership fee and no restrictions or limits on frequency of use. Cardholders and their family members may use the card any time their prescriptions are not covered by insurance.
There is no cost to county taxpayers for NACo and Laramie County to make these money saving cards available.
“Laramie County is proud to be one of the counties nationwide participating with NACo,” said Jack Knudson, Laramie County Commission Vice Chairman. We are very fortunate to be able to offer this free program to those who need it most.”
Cards are available in English and Spanish at Cheyenne Regional Medical Center, City/County Health, local doctors’ offices, pharmacies and other services agencies. County residents may also call Beth Daane, Cheyenne Regional Medical Center’s Prescription Assistance Coordinator and Point of Contact for the Laramie County Prescription Drug Discount Program, at (307) 633-7982 or visit https://naco.advancerx.com for assistance with the program.
“Using the card is free and easy, and offers significant savings for the uninsured and underinsured. Even those with prescriptions coverage can use the card to save money on drugs that are not covered by their health plan,” said Daane.
The program is administered by Caremark Rx, Inc.
