NACo Prescription Discount Card Program

     Cuyahoga County has recently reached an agreement with the National Association of Counties (NACo) to offer a Prescription Drug Discount Card Program.  By virtue of being a member of NACo and at no cost to the county, we join over 500 counties nationwide in offering this program designed to leverage our collective size to save residents hard earned money.  County residents can now tap into a negotiated discount rate on their prescriptions that can see an average savings of 22% or more.  This represents millions in savings since the inception of the program in 2005.  Other highlights of the program include:
  • It is easy to participate.  There are no enrollment fees, no forms to fill out, no age or income requirements, and no medical condition restrictions.  The entire family is covered with just one card and virtually all commonly prescribed medicine is covered;
  • There is no costs.  There is no cost to the county, county taxpayers, or consumers to participate.  Caremark negotiates the discounts directly with participating pharmacies.  Neither NACo nor the participating counties receive any revenue from the program;
  • Everyone is eligible.  The discount cards are provided free to residents living in participating NACo member counties across the country.  A national network of more than 59,000 retail pharmacies honor the card;
  • Consumers always receive the lowest retail price.  On occasion, pharmacies will price a particular medication lower than the discount rate available with the NACo card.  If that occurs, consumers will receive the lower price.  Either way, consumers will always receive the best price available.
      The actual Discount Cards are located at the Town Hall and are available to all residents.  The are no enrollment fees, no forms to fill out, no age or income requirements, and no medical condition restrictions for consumers to use the NACo card.  In addition, the entire family is covered with just one card and virtually all commonly prescribed medicine is covered.
