Savings programs and discount prescription companies
negotiate discounts on bulk drug purchases with pharmacies. People in need of
prescriptions can then save on medication prices by using a free “prescription discount
card” or mobile app provided by the savings program. If and when you use
this discount prescription card, the pharmacy then compensates the discount
program. That’s the fee the pharmacy pays to the discount program in exchange
for them sending a new customer. Pharmacies then benefit from a store visit,
and if patient is uninsured, they sell a prescription they probably wouldn’t
have otherwise.
