Default Great News Plus Question about RX card
Just found out this morning that I'm 100% approved for medical care at the MS Center, which means I don't have to pay anything for my MRIs and Spinal Tap Monday plus anything else until March 2014!!!!! Woohoo!

My other question is that I got a letter in the mail about saving on prescriptions...the company is called National Prescription Savings Network, and that it can save you up to 75% off your medicines. Has anyone gotten and used these and do they work?

The best way to find out about a medicine card is to go and talk to a few pharmacies and get their opinions on how the card would work at their store.

I am so happy you get to receive care at the MS Center!!

Hey, that's great, Luke! Better than the 90% discount I got at the MS clinic in Mississippi.

About Rx cards... Karilann's suggestion is excellent. Check with your favorite pharmacy to see which company they recommend for you.

Great to hear you will get your care!

As for the Rx card (any many others like it) I suggest caution. A simple google search will help you- here is a article that is pretty good-
http://articles.latimes.com/2013/jul...zarus-20130726

My husband made the huge mistake of using a similar card - he saved about 6dollars (not even 10%) and we got bombarded by marketing- junk mail, calls at dinnertime etc are related to the drug he bought.

Our pharmacist recently advised us that they are pretty worthless. . . just a marketing ploy. Most pharmacies will actually try to get your cost down as much as possible if you ask . . . or at least ours does.
