Today in Useful Fucking Things That No One Tells You About: the Prescription Assistance Program (PAP) offers a discount drug card to uninsured Americans. The card is accepted at over 56,000 pharmacies nationwide, including CVS, RiteAid, Walgreens, and Safeway, and offers a discount of up to 75%.
I was fired a few years ago and was afraid I would have to give up my antidepressants, but my dad told me about the drug card. With it, I paid $30 instead of $60. Still kinda pricey, but I was able to afford them until I found a new job (and since they were for my social anxiety, I have no doubt they helped during interviews).
Share this. I’m sure there are a ton of unemployed and uninsured people who don’t know about this.
PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST SCAMS:
If you use a site other than the one above, know that these cards WILL NOT ask for any bank account/credit card information or any personal information beyond your name and phone number. These cards are FREE; there is no monthly fee. If you’re being asked to pay for this card, something is wrong.
Holy shit guys I think this is for real. Definitely trying it.
