Determine your savings by directly comparing prices. Pharmacy RX One’s website offers a price-checking tool; input your prescription details to see their cost. Then, check prices at other local and online pharmacies. Websites like GoodRx or even your insurance provider’s website can provide price comparisons for various pharmacies in your area. Remember to factor in any applicable coupons or insurance coverage for a fully accurate comparison.
Factors Affecting Cost
Several factors influence prescription costs. Brand-name versus generic medications significantly impact price; generics are usually much cheaper. Your insurance plan’s formulary also matters; medications covered under your plan will likely be less expensive. Finally, individual pharmacy pricing policies vary, so a direct comparison is always recommended.
Example Comparison
Let’s say a 30-day supply of Lipitor 20mg costs $100 at Pharmacy RX One with your insurance. Using GoodRx, you find a local pharmacy offering the same medication for $80 with your insurance. In this scenario, the local pharmacy offers a $20 savings. However, Pharmacy RX One might have better prices for other prescriptions. Conduct thorough comparisons for all your medications to determine the best overall value.
