Prescription Discount Card Overview

The National Association of Counties has contracted with
Caremark to provide a prescription discount card for member counties to offer to

drugs coupled with the growing population of the uninsured and underinsured has
created a crisis in our country.

Snohomish County provides the following benefits to program participants:
- Average savings of 20%
- Extra savings available through mail service
- Savings on specialty medications
- No enrollment fees
- No age requirements
- No income requirements
- Family coverage with just one card
- Over 54,000 participating pharmacies
nationwide
- All commonly prescribed medicine
is covered
- Unlimited use
- Access to

Any County resident without prescription coverage can use this
program. Even if you have insurance for prescription drugs, you may still
benefit from the discount card, since it may save you money on prescription
drugs your existing plan does not cover.
Everyone is eligible
- No income requirements
- No age requirements
- Unlimited use for the whole family
The Snohomish County Prescription Discount Card is:
-
Valuable. Save an average of 20% off the
pharmacy's regular price on all commonly prescribed prescriptions and an
average savings of 50% on 3 months supply of select generics through mail
service. Savings are also available on hi-tech and injectable drugs
through our specialty pharmacy.
