*How much does the feature cost?
Your pharmacy discounts are provided as part of your Co-op Connections program at no cost.
*Does everyone in my family need an individual card?
No. One card may be used by the entire family.
*I just received my card. Can I use it right away?
Yes, just present your card and prescription at a participating retail pharmacy to receive a discount at the time of purchase.
*How are these pharmacy discounts different from traditional prescription insurance?
This plan is not insurance; it is a pharmacy discount offer. The card provides immediate discounts at the pharmacy. Upon presenting your card to the pharmacist, you will pay the lower of a discounted price or the pharmacy's regular retail price. There are no forms to fill out and no limit to the number of times you can use the card. These discounts are available only at particpating retail pharmacies.
*Can I use my Co-op Connections card with my current insurance benefit to reduce my costs?
Your card cannot be used in conjunction with insurance. However, use your card to buy prescriptions not covered by your insurance plans at a discounted rate. Pharmacy discounts are not insurance, and are not intended as a substitute for insurance.
*Will I always receive the lowest price?
Yes. You will receive the best price available to you through this program at the pharmacy. On occassion, pharmacies will price a particular medication lower than the discounted rate provided by the card. If that occurs, you will receive the lower price.
*Why did the price of my prescription change since my last purchase?
Drug prices are different from pharmacy to pharmacy. Even chains have different prices in their stores depending on the population they are servicing. Additionally, manufacturers' drug prices change periodically.
*What is the mail order program?
To ensure members always save on their prescription drugs, a unique mail order program was created to complement the network pharmacy benefit. Since most maintenance medication are purchased in 90 day supplies, members maximize savings and have the convenience of home delivery (at no additional charge) by ordering through the mail order option. The mail order phone number is 877-839-8121. Learn more about the mail order program.
