Racine County Prescription Card Can Save You Money

By The Racine News Team

Rep. Robin Vos

Racine County, WI – Racine County Executive BIll McReynolds announced last month that the Racine County prescription discount card has saved Racine County residents almost $500,000 in the last 27 months.

If you’re not familiar with the program, it was instituted in November 2007 to help Racine County residents cope with the high cost of prescription drugs.  The card is offered through the National Association of Counties and administered by CVS Caremark. On average, cardholders enjoy discounts of 25% at more than 57,000 retail pharmacies throughout the nation, and at almost every pharmacy in Racine County.

The best thing about this discount card is it’s free and available to every Racine County resident, regardless of age or income. There’s also no enrollment form, no application, no membership fee and no limit on how much you can use the card.

The Racine County Executive and Board deserve a great deal of credit for taking advantage of  large-group buying power.  I would encourage everyone to obtain the card to help out with their monthly family budget.
