To assist its residents with the high cost of prescription drugs, Douglas County is participating in the free prescription drug discount card program sponsored through the National Association of Counties (NACo).  

Prescription drug discount cards help to reduce the cost of prescriptions not covered by insurance.  The cards are available to all County residents, regardless of age, income, or existing health coverage and can be used at 42 participating pharmacy locations in Douglas County.  There is no enrollment form, no membership fee and there are no restrictions or limits on frequency of use.  Cardholders and their family members may use the card any time their prescriptions are not covered by insurance.

Obtaining a prescription discount card is as easy as printing one from the internet. County residents can visit www.caremark.com/naco 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to print an instant personalized ID. If you don’t have access to a computer, visit the County web site at www.douglas.co.us/humanresources/discountcard/ for a list of partner sites where cards are available for pick-up.

Residents are saving an average of 24% on prescription drugs by using the card and up to 50% on mail order prescriptions. Pet medication discounts are available at certain pharmacies.
