Spina Bifida Of Greater Saint Louis has extended their support for the Missouri Drug Card. The Missouri Drug Card is a free statewide prescription assistance program that was launched to help residents of Missouri afford their prescription medications. Since its inception in July of 2008, Missouri Drug Card has saved residents over $6.5 million. With the rising costs of healthcare today, along with the state of the current economy, people all over the country have been affected and have had to make economical sacrifices in their lives. Unfortunately, those people have to make decisions of whether to pay their utility bills, or to get their much needed prescription medications filled. According to recent surveys conducted by Rasmussen Reports, 40% of Americans say they have chosen not to fill a prescription due to the high cost. Even 34% of Americans with health insurance say they have not filled a prescription because of the costs. SBSTL knows that now is the time to make the residents of Missouri aware of the Missouri Drug Card. Everyone is eligible to get a free drug card. There are no applications to fill out, no restrictions to membership and no income or age requirements. The program was launched to help the insured and underinsured afford their prescription medications, but can also be used by people who have health insurance coverage with no prescription benefits, which is common in many health savings accounts (HSA) and high deductible health plans. Additionally, people who have prescription coverage can use this program for non-covered drugs. The Missouri Drug Card can also be used by individuals who do not qualify for publicly funded programs such as Medicaid and Medicare. This program offers discounts of up to 75% on both brand and generic medications with an average savings of around 30%. The card is accepted at over 54,000 pharmacies across the country, and most pharmacies in Missouri. MO Drug Card Highlights: MO Drug Card is available to all residents of Missouri!
