Many of us use chain drug stores (like Walgreens or CVS), or large box stores (such as Target and Wal-Mart), to pick up our prescriptions.   But millions of community-minded Americans like the personal connection with their local independent pharmacist.  He or she is often the owner and operator of your local store, and they put a lot of thought into how they can best serve you.

 

According to the National Community Pharmacists Association there are “…more than 22,700 independent community pharmacies, pharmacy franchises, and chains. Together they represent an $88 billion health-care marketplace, employ over 65,000 pharmacists, and dispense over 40% of all retail prescriptions.”

 

Our hat is off to them. Running an independent pharmacy these days must be tough.  Ask an independent pharmacist and you may hear them tell you that not all discount card programs are built with their best interest in mind.  One example is mail order programs which siphon away their customers and help put them out of business. Not to mention that you receive zero face-to-face consultation time prior to receiving your prescription from a mail order pharmacy. BetterRxCard focuses on getting you the best discount without a mail order program so that you may continue to get great service from your corner pharmacy.

 

We have created a fair prescription discount card program; one that serves the best interests of patients, pharmacists, and all pharmacies, including over 20,000 independent pharmacies in the BetterRxCard network.
