Does anyone else get the discount card from Healthcare Alliance that is called Rxrelief? They sent

me this card and it is supposed to save up to 75% on drugs at the pharmacy? I have no idea what this is all about. It is free but it will probably not save me more than $20 a month since I am on both Medicare and Medicaid. Usually only have to pay co-pays.

I received an RxRelief Card in the mail about 2 months ago. I am uninsured (just lost my job, laid off) so It's been a huge help on a monthly prescription I need. The Rx without insurance costs me $204 out of pocket -- with the card I pay $120. That's a pretty substantial amount.

I don't think the card will help you with your co-pay, but it helps on any meds you buy without insurance/ Medicare/ other assistance.

I would definitely recommend holding onto the card, even if you can't use it. It's free, and I've never encountered any shady business from Healthcare Alliance nor have I ever tricked into some extra fee.

Reminds me why I like my local RiteAid. They have my AAA discount info squirreled away and also some RiteAid program, and they automatically use the lowest price of those and Medicare Plan D without my asking. Almost always it's Plan D, however.
