Over 9,400 Nevada citizens signed up for the state’s free digital discount card so they can save money when buying prescription medications.
Eleven counties in the state offer 100% retail pharmacy participation for ArrayRx, a digital savings card that is accepted at nearly 94% of state pharmacies, according to a press release from Gov. Steve Sisolak’s (D-NV) office.
“This card is one more option for Nevadans and is available to everyone,” Beth Slamowitz, senior policy advisor on pharmacy at the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services, said in the press release. “We hope it is a benefit for those who may be uninsured, underinsured, or have a high deductible plan.”
Nevada joined Oregon and Washington in introducing the statewide drug discount card, the press release noted. Sisolak referred to it during his State of the State address.
People who are interested in signing up for the ArrayRx Discount Card can do so at no charge at ArrayRxCard.com, according to the press release. Each family member who signs up will receive an individual subscriber ID number.
There is no enrollment fee for the ArrayRx Discount Card, the press release noted. The card can be utilized to save money on any FDA-approved medication and is ready to use at a pharmacy after enrollment is complete. The average savings will range from 18% for brand-name drugs to 80% for generic drugs. Pharmacies that take the card are not charged transaction or marketing fees.
