Consumers get frustrated with loopholes and limitations. The “this is free…except” becomes tiring after a while. That’s why we’re proud of the BetterRxCard program. There are no geographic boundaries, no formulary limitations and no usage restrictions.
No Boundaries
With more than 60,000 participating pharmacies, users are not limited by region. If you find a drug store that carries your prescription for less, there’s a good chance the BetterRxCard can save you even more. This is also convenient while traveling, when your neighborhood pharmacy is not an option. Got mobile? You can access the BetterRxCard site with your mobile phone and find participating pharmacies, even while on the go.
No Formulary Limitations
Drugs approved by your insurer are broken down into approximately three tiers. For example, your co-pay on a medication may be $10, $25 or $50, depending on which tier your insurer says it falls under. Recently, you may have noticed that your lower-tiered prescription has moved up a tier. Consequently, it’s become more expensive.
We’ve noticed that too.
You may have also found that your prescription is no longer covered by insurance, forcing your doctor to choose a cheaper – approved – drug. If you already have a prescription that’s working for you, why switch to something with unknown side effects? If your drug is excluded, you may still be able to get it for about the cost of your original co-pay, sometimes for less.
What about weight loss, birth control, lifestyle drugs and other exclusions?
Our discount drug card includes many prescriptions not covered by insurance, such as weight loss and birth control pills and lifestyle drugs (including Viagra and Cialis). Millions of people take Coumadin each day. Exclude by many. Claritin D? Excluded. Nexium? Boniva? Synthroid? Excluded. Excluded. Excluded.
No Usage Restrictions
With the BetterRxCard, you can use one card for your family or provide each family member with his or her own card. There’s no fee and it doesn’t matter if one family member is insured, while another is not. In fact, the plan is so inclusive that even your pets are covered.
