The prescription you received is important for any number of reasons. It could be an antibiotic to treat an infection, a pain medication, prescription strength fluoride, something else. It’s important that you receive and use as prescribed.
Please do not leave the pharmacy without your prescription because you are told that your insurance doesn’t cover it.
Save on Prescriptions
Sometimes a prescription is not covered by insurance, but these days the ability to save money on prescription drugs is right in the palm of your hand thanks to money-saving apps like SingleCare and GoodRx, among others. Many insurance plans have high deductibles or limited formularies that don’t cover the drugs you need, and money savers may be able to find you a lower price than your insurance co-pay. GoodRx works with more participating pharmacies than SingleCare, 70,000 pharmacies nationwide vs. 35,000 participating pharmacies.
Keep in mind that no matter which pharmacy from which network you choose, SingleCare and GoodRx both work the same way. First, you search by drug name to find a discounted price and a pharmacy you like. Then you print the discount coupon out, or email or text it to yourself. Finally, you go to the pharmacy and purchase the drug at the discount you were shown. It’s that easy. Both SingleCare and GoodRx are completely free to use; however, GoodRx has a premium membership program that can deliver additional savings for a price. SingleCare does not.
