You could be paying a lot more for your medications than you should and you might not even know it.
Today, we’ve filled a diabetes medication for a patient that recently transferred to our pharmacy. They have 2 insurance plans and are eligible for a manufacturer coupon to bring down the copay. They have not filled this medication in weeks due to the cost. They have been picking and choosing which medications they will fill each month. They were paying over $100 a month at another pharmacy for this 1 medication. Today, they left with the medication with no cost to them.
The previous pharmacy was only billing the coupon card after it was presented and not their health insurance as well. The same was also being done to their Continuous Glucose Monitor. Another $77+ monthly copay was brought down to $36. A new glucose reader was prescribed, a $45 copay. We informed them they can download an app and don’t actually need the reader.
Almost $190 was saved today and they will continue to save $140+ a month. They will no longer have to choose between filling their diabetes medication or their blood pressure medication.
This is the difference between choosing just any pharmacy and choosing Crown Drugs.
