Free Discount Prescription Drug Card
As a school nurse, you know how expensive medications can be, particularly if you, your co-workers, your students or their families are un-insured or under insured.  This program is being provided to you to help lower their prescription drug costs. This is NOT insurance.  This is a discount program that works at a large number of pharmacies and grocery stores.   This card can be provided to anyone associated with the school(s) that you serve.  You, your family, staff members, volunteers, any or all students and their families.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. Is this an insurance card?
A. No. This is a prescription discount card. It will lower the cost of many prescription medications, but does not work like paid insurance. This is FREE.  It will not always be helpful.

Q. Did NASN create this?
A. No. United Networks of America negotiate the discounted prices at more than 54,000 pharmacies.  NASN chose to make the cards available to school nurses because we are on the front lines of helping families keep their children healthy and in school.  School nurses know which children and families are struggling to afford their medications.

Q. I used the card and and the cost of the medication was still expensive.  Why?

A. This discount card includes many common medications, particularly the generic medications. Some medications are not included at all.
