GoodRx is a free service to help consumers find the lowest Rx prices. Below is some information from their website.
The cost of a prescription may differ by more than $100 between pharmacies across the street from each other. GoodRx gathers current prices and discounts to help you find the lowest cost pharmacy for your prescriptions. GoodRx is 100% free. No personal information required.
How do I find discounts for my drug? Just go to the home page https://www.goodrx.com, type your drug’s name in the search field, and click the “Find the Lowest Price” button.
What are GoodRx coupons? GoodRx coupons will help you pay less than the cash price for your prescription. They’re free to use and are accepted at virtually every U.S. pharmacy. Your pharmacist will know how to enter the codes on the coupon to pull up the lowest discount available.
How do I use a GoodRx coupon? It’s similar to using a coupon at a grocery store. Simply print the coupon and bring it with you to the pharmacy when you pick up your prescription. The pharmacist will enter the numbers on the coupon into their system to find the discount. Don’t have a printer or want to save paper & ink cartridges? You can show the coupon on your phone by:
A) Sending the coupon to yourself via email or text
B) Or using our mobile app
C) Or visiting our mobile website
What if I have insurance or Medicare? Many insurance plans have high deductibles or limited formularies that don’t cover the drugs you need. GoodRx may be able to find you a lower price than your insurance copay. Hundreds of generic medications are available for $4 or even free without insurance.

When using GoodRx to purchase a prescription please know this will not be run through insurance. You are required to pay the full discounted price and will need to submit a manual claim form to Medica with a copy of the detailed pharmacy receipt for the amount paid to count towards the deductible. A copy of the claim form can be requested from Aurora’s Benefit Specialist in the Menomonie Office. We recommend reviewing the form prior to using GoodRx. Always confirm the pharmacy is in network and the medication is on the formulary list before purchasing an Rx outside of your insurance plan.
