Can my health insurance prescription coverage be used together with the Discount Prescription Card?
Unfortunately, only one plan or program can be used when filling a prescription. However, if a prescription is not covered under a particular plan, then you may use the Discount Prescription Card to obtain a discount. You can also have the pharmacist price your prescription using your insurance plan and the Discount Prescription Card and then select the one which provides the lowest out-of-pocket cost to you. If you select to use the Discount Prescription Card, remember that you may need to submit receipts to your insurance company to ensure that the amount paid is applied to your deductible.
Are some drugs covered under the Discount Prescription Card that my health insurance prescription coverage does not cover?

If I have health insurance plan with prescription benefits, can I use your Discount Prescription Card if the prescription is cheaper using your Discount Prescription Card than using my health insurance prescription plan?
Yes, however, if you have not yet reached your annual insurance deductible, it is most likely that you will want to use your insurance benefits. If you do use our Discount Prescription Card instead of your health insurance prescription plan, then you will most likely need to send a copy of the receipt to your insurance company to ensure that the amount paid is applied to your annual deductible. If you register the Discount Prescription Card with your pharmacy and it is the same pharmacy where your health prescription plan is registered, you will have to indicate which plan is being used for future prescription purchases.
