How is this prescription discount program different from traditional prescription insurance?
This plan is not insurance; it is a prescription discount program. The card provides immediate
discounts at the pharmacy. Upon presenting your card to the pharmacist, you will pay the lower of a
discounted price or the pharmacy’s regular retail price. There are no claim forms to fill out and no
limit to the number of times you can use the card. These discounts are available only at participating
retail pharmacies.

out if a specific pharmacy participates in the program.
14.
How much will I save?
While savings on each prescription may vary, you can save an average of 20 percent off of the
pharmacy’s regular retail prices for prescription drugs. In addition, you may save even more by
choosing from our list of select medications. This list is comprised of products offering additional
savings.
15.
Will I always receive the lowest price?
Yes. You will receive the best price available to you through this program at the pharmacy. On
occasion, pharmacies will price a particular medication lower than the discount rate provided by the
card. If that occurs, you will receive the lower price.
16.
Can I find out the discounted price of my prescriptions before going to the pharmacy?
Because prices can vary by location, only the actual pharmacy can tell you the exact price of the
prescription. However, you can look up an estimated price for medications at
www.caremark.com/naco, or call toll free 1-877-321-2652.
17.

stores depending on the population they are servicing. Additionally, manufacturers’ drug prices
change periodically.

Because a pharmacy's retail price or usual and customary charge can differ greatly by pharmacy, your
exact percentage of savings may vary depending on the prescription drug and the price you have
paid before.
19.
Do I have to choose between my prescription discount card and the Wal-Mart $4 generic
No, always present your prescription discount card at a participating pharmacy, including Wal-Mart,
so you will receive the lowest price available from the pharmacy for that prescription medicine on
that day. You will receive the $4 price at Wal-Mart, when applicable, and the prescription discount
card discounted price when it is lower.
20.
Should I still present my prescription discount card at Wal-Mart when buying a $4 generic?
Yes, always present your prescription discount card when buying prescriptions not covered by a
prescription drug benefit plan. For generic medicine on the Wal-Mart list, you will pay either $4 or
the prescription discount card price, whichever is lower.
21.
Can I get an additional discount off the Wal-Mart Generic Drug Program – $4 for select
No, when presenting your prescription discount card, you will receive either the pharmacy’s regular
price for the prescription medicine or the prescription discount card discounted price, whichever is
lower. If Wal-Mart’s $4 price for select generics is lower than the prescription discount card price,
you will pay $4. With the prescription discount card, you will receive the best price available for your
prescription medicine on that day from that pharmacy.
