A New Way to Save on Prescriptions

Introducing The American Legion Prescription Discount Card Paying for prescription medication continues to be a struggle for many Americans without prescription insurance coverage – more than 44 million in 2005. If you are one of these Americans and a member of The American Legion, Sons of The American Legion or a dependent, your membership is more valuable than you may think. Introducing The American Legion Prescription Discount Card administered by Caremark. This new prescription discount card will soon replace the existing program offered by RxAmerica. If you currently use the RxAmerica prescription discount card program, don’t worry. Simply present your current prescription discount card to the pharmacist along with your prescription to keep saving until you receive more information about the new program in July, 2007. There are some important changes to The American Legion Prescription Discount Card program:
  • Save an average of 20 percent off the regular retail price of prescription medicine
  • More than 57,000 participating pharmacies nationwide
  • Over 99.9 percent of prescription medicine is included in the program
Additionally, when you use your new prescription discount card, you will automatically receive a Health Advocate Card in the mail. Your special Health Advocate Card offers you a 20 percent savings off CVS branded products in all CVS/pharmacy stores nationwide. You will receive this card in the mail approximately two to three weeks after you begin using your prescription discount card. Once you receive your Health Advocate Card, simply present it at the time of purchase to receive this discount. More savings on prescription medicine are available through the convenient mail service program. Getting started in mail service is easy; simply call the toll-free Customer Care number and provide your prescription information, doctor information and a credit card number. Caremark will call your doctor and mail your prescription to your home or office. Your new prescription discount card will be good for your entire household – including pets. If your veterinarian prescribes a prescription medicine for your pet that is also used to treat conditions in humans, simply present your card with your prescription at any participating pharmacy. Look for more information about the program beginning in July, 2007. This plan is not insurance. Discounts are only available at participating pharmacies.
