Save Money on Prescriptions with Medication Finder

The cost of prescription medicines is always a hot topic. Most of us have experienced sticker shock at least once when we’ve filled a prescription. So, it’s not surprising that one in four Americans say it’s hard to pay for their medications. It can be especially tough for people with chronic health conditions who take more than one medication.

One health tracking poll shows people can get pretty creative when it comes to saving money on their medications. One in five don’t fill their prescriptions. One in 10 admit they cut pills in half or skip a dose. We all know neither is a good plan. Both can make a health condition worse.

Save More Money on Your Prescriptions

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Oklahoma (BCBSOK) has a better idea. What if you could search for the lowest-price options for your prescriptions? What if you could get alerts when savings were found? Lower prices mean lower out-of-pocket costs and more money in your pocket.

Here’s How It Works

As part of your pharmacy benefits with BCBSOK, you can use Medication Finder powered by Rx Savings Solutions^TM (RxSS) to search for savings on the prescription drugs you take.* It doesn’t change anything related to your plan benefits or pharmacy preferences. What it does do is help you find lower-cost options for medications covered by your health plan to treat your condition. No stone is left unturned in the quest to save you money.

Using its high-power search function, Medication Finder software flags:

• Generic options for name-brand drugs
• Better prices at other drug stores or mail-order services
• Medications that work just as well for your condition but cost less

You can also sign up to get alerts from RxSS about savings. BCBSOK works with RxSS to find prescription drug savings as a service to our members. If you decide to switch to a lower-cost option, RxSS will even call your doctor and handle the details for you.

See Your Savings, Anytime, Anywhere

Medication Finder and savings alerts from RxSS make it easy to stay up to date on savings opportunities for all your current and new prescriptions. Each time you are prescribed a new prescription drug covered by your plan, you can use Medication Finder’s search feature to check pricing on medications.

Plus, you’ll get an alert from RxSS via your choice of email, phone, text or letter. The alert will tell you when you’re paying too much on your prescriptions.

Share the Savings

Dependent coverage is available to individuals up to age 26, and is included when their parent or guardian signs up for Rx Savings Solutions. Adult dependents simply need to launch their own account and share access to view savings info linked to dependents’ medications.
