New Prescription Discount Card

Available in Kings County

Kings County has joined with NACo, the National Association of Counties to bring the NACo prescription drug discount program to our community. NACo, in partnership with CVS/Caremark Rx, offers this program to more than 900 participating counties nationwide.

What is the Kings County Rx drug discount program?

The NACo prescription drug discount program is called "Kings County Rx" in our county. This program helps consumers save money on their prescriptions that are not covered by insurance. The free cards are available at many distribution sites in the county (pdf), and may be used at any participating retail pharmacies in the county.

The Kings County Rx prescription discount card is not insurance.

Where can I get a card?

Any Public Health Clinic or County Library county. Or go to www.caremark.com/naco to print one.

How much will I save?

The average savings is about 22%. Savings range from 13 to 34%, depending on the medication. Kings County Rx cardholders can save even more money, up to 50%, by using the mail service for a 3-month supply. Discounts are also available for pet prescriptions purchased through retail pharmacies.

Who is eligible to obtain and use the card?

The Kings County Rx prescription discount card is provided free to all residents of Kings County. The entire family can use one card. If you lose your card, just pick up another card from any one of the many distribution sites in the county.

How Do I Use the Card?

There are no enrollment fees, no forms to fill out, and no age or income requirements. Just take the card to any participating pharmacy, which is most retail pharmacies in Kings County, and receive a discount on the purchase of your prescription.
