That is, according to the Nye County official web site. The card is free. You can even use the card for prescriptions for you pet. You have to use the card at a “participating retail pharmacy.”
They confuse me a bit on their FAQ page. They state “This plan is not insurance.” Then in the next section they state “Your card cannot be used in conjunction with other insurance.” Reading that as a lawyer I ask, “If the plan is not insurance, then how can it possibly be used in conjunction with other insurance?”
Oh well, if you are interested in the Prescription Discount Card I’d ask them (whomever “them” is.)
One other thing, just who are these “participating retail pharmacies?” They tell you there are 57,000 of them and give you a phone number to call to find out if any pharmacy in your location participates.
Oh, don’t mention this to any Republican. They might be shocked senseless and confuse this Prescription Discount Card plan as some kind of socialism. But then quickly recover when they learn the card gets you an average 20% discount on your prescription. I’m sure they will—in any event reject the Card because we cannot support any kind of socialized medicine, now can we?
