I am considering using the mail order drug program for my routine, maintenance medication. What is the cost?
The cost of a three-month supply of prescription drugs through Walgreen’s Health Initiatives (WHI) is 10 percent of the average wholesale price (AWP) for generic drugs up to a maximum cost of $75 and 20 percent of the (AWP) for brand names up to a maximum cost of $150. Remember that your percentage cost share may be lower than at your local pharmacy because the mail program buys drugs in larger quantities. You share in the savings larger quantity purchases may produce. You can check prescription prices with WHI using the telephone number on your ID card.
