The National Association of Counties has contracted with Caremark to provide a prescription discount card for member counties to offer to their uninsured and underinsured residents. The rising cost of prescription drugs coupled with the growing population of the uninsured has created a crisis in our country.

The National Association of Counties (NACo) has recognized an opportunity to help member counties offer a prescription discount card program, for minimal investment, to help uninsured and underinsured county residents save money on their prescriptions.

The NACo Prescription Discount Card provides the following benefits to program participants:

• Average savings of 20%
• Extra savings available through mail service
• Savings on specialty medications
• No enrollment fees
• No age requirements
• Family coverage with just one card
• Over 57,000 participating pharmacies
• All commonly prescribed medicine is covered
