Are you paying
the full cost of your prescription drugs today?
Help is now
available. Tri-State Business Group on Health has put a
program together, the TSBGH Prescription Drug Card Program,
that can provide you with the same level of discount prices for
your prescription drugs that large companies are paying.
We have taken the
leverage we have in representing over 15,000 covered lives in
the Tri-State area and turned it into a Community Benefit
program that can provide you with savings of 15% to 55% on your
prescription drugs.
Who is Eligible
for this program?
Any individual, their spouse and dependent children under the
age of 25 in the household.
What is the
program?
This program enables people to receive discounts of 15% to 55%
on their prescription medications at over 55,000 pharmacies
nationwide. Discount amounts vary, and on medications
there could be no other discount due to programs already in
place at the pharmacy for that particular medication.
Do I have to
change medications in order to receive savings?
No, all brand name and generic drugs which require a
prescription are included; there are no exclusions.
What limitations
apply?
- There are no quantity limits, receive as much medication as
prescribed.
- There are no limits on the number of prescriptions filled or
refilled.
- There are no forms to fill out.
How much does the
program cost?
The cost is $24.00 per year for the entire family! Since
this is an annual fee program, there are no refunds. You
will have an option to not renew at your anniversary date.
How does the
program work?
When you enroll in the program, you will receive an
identification card mailed directly to your home. Simply
present your identification card at your pharmacy when filling
your prescription.
Once you compare the
discounted price you pay against the full price that you would
have paid, you will be convinced that the TSBGH Prescription
Drug Card Program is a valuable tool in keeping prescription
medications affordable. After all, maintaining your health
is very important and taking your medications as prescribed by
your doctor is critical to maintaining your health.
You may also choose
to use the mail service program to receive even greater
savings.
How do I enroll
in the Program?
Simply click here for an
enrollment form. Print the form, fill it out, and mail it
along with your check or money order for $24.00 payable to
"Prescription Drug Card Program" to the address on the

You will become
effective on the first day of the month following receipt of
your enrollment form and check (if received by the 24th of the
month). Your identification card and other materials will
