Americans are paying more for prescription drugs than ever before. But there are now a number of prescription drug assistance programs in place to help decrease the costs.
Seventeen different drug assistance programs. are detailed in RX Drug Assistance Programs At A Glace. All of these programs provide cost savings but differ in terms of eligibility requirements and other restrictions.
Lake County is one of 37 counties nationwide participating in a prescription drug discount card pilot program sponsored by the National Association of Counties (NACo). With this card, free to county residents, you can save money on many of your prescription purchases.
