OklahomaRx Discount Card
The OklahomaRx Discount Card was established by the state of Oklahoma to:
- Combat skyrocketing drug prices with savings of 10 percent to 55 percent
- Provide significant discounts on prescription drugs for all Oklahoma residents
- Help family's improve their health and well-being
- Provide a low or no cost prescription discount card
Individuals who do not currently have health insurance with prescription drug coverage (or those who regularly exceed their maximum yearly benefit for prescription drugs) will realize the greatest savings. So, if you do not already have full prescription drug coverage, this program could save you a lot of money.
If your income is greater than 150 percent of the federal poverty level, there is a membership fee of $9.95 per year. If it is less than shown below, the membership fee will be paid on your behalf by the State of Oklahoma.
| Persons in Family or Household | 150 percent of Poverty level |
|---|---|
| 1 | $15,315 |
| 2 | $20,535 |
| 3 | $25,755 |
| 4 | $30,975 |
| 5 | $36,195 |
| 6 | $41,415 |
| 7 | $46,635 |
| 8 | $51,855 |
| For each additional person, add | $5,220 |
What type of discount will this new Oklahoma prescription discount card provide?
Discounts range from 10 percent to 55 percent, depending on what drugs you buy and where you buy them. To save the most money, choose generic drugs first. If you are taking a brand name prescription, talk with your doctor about a possible generic or a covered nonprescription or over-the-counter (OTC) option. Often, a doctor can prescribe a less expensive, generic drug that works as well as the name-brand you are currently taking - but at a significant discount.
What medications are included in the program?
You can use the card on thousands of medications in many drug classes. Always check with your doctor to decide which generic or alternative is best for you. Remember, using generics will provide the biggest discount. Savings may be up to 55 percent!
