Questions and Answers about Peoples Prescription Plan

What does getting the "lowest" or "best" price on my prescriptions mean?

It means that participating pharmacies will give you or your family member the lowest (or best) price available in their pharmacy for Peoples Prescription Plan members. About 90% of the time, that price will be lower than what you would pay without the plan.* On occasion, some pharmacies may offer a special, even lower, price on some prescriptions. When this occurs, and the price is even lower than with your Peoples Prescription Card, you will always receive the lower of the two prices.
