AffordRx makes prescription-discount card available nationwide

DALLAS — AffordRx.com is making a prescription discount card that offers savings of up to 75% at more than 56,000 pharmacies across the country available to all residents of the United States, the company said.

The company said the cards would be available without restrictions on membership and that there were no income requirements, age limitations or applications.

"We are excited to launch this program, potentially saving Americans millions of dollars on their prescription medication," AffordRx spokesman Dylan Marc said.

The program was launched to help uninsured and underinsured people afford prescription drugs, but is also available to people with health insurance with no prescription benefits, which is common among many health savings accounts and high-deductible health plans.
