COSTCO MEMBER PRESCRIPTION PROGRAM ENROLLMENT FORM WHY JOIN?
COSTCO MEMBER PRESCRIPTION PROGRAM ENROLLMENT FORM WHY JOIN? The Costco Member Prescription Program provides qualified Costco members lower costs on prescription drugs. By enrolling in the program, Costco members who either have no available insurance coverage for medications or who have insurance, but their insurance does not cover all of their prescriptions, may pay less for certain prescriptions than what they would otherwise pay at a Costco Pharmacy for the same drug or a therapeutically equivalent alternative drug. NAME COSTCO MEMBERSHIP NUMBER DATE OF BIRTH PHONE NUMBER ADDRESS WHO IS ELIGIBLE TO JOIN? Enrollment in the program is open to those Costco members (and their dependents) who either have no prescription drug coverage available or who are insured but their insurance does not cover all of their prescriptions. Any uninsured participant who later obtains any form of prescription drug insurance must inform Costco, and his or her participation in the program will be canceled, except to the extent such insurance does not cover any of their prescriptions. Any individual who receives benefits from a publicly funded healthcare program, such as Medicare or Medicaid, is not eligible. HOW MUCH WILL I PAY? There is no additional charge for Costco members to participate in the Costco Member Prescription Program. Customers who are not members of Costco must join Costco at any membership level to participate in the Program. Costco membership provides many benefits including the ability to benefit from value-added services such as the Program. HOW MUCH WILL I SAVE? Beginning with your first prescription after enrollment, the amount of any price reduction is determined at the time of purchase, based on financial arrangements with manufacturers and suppliers regarding the drug(s) dispensed, and/or on Costco’s net cost of purchasing certain drugs, both of which may change from time to time. Savings are estimated between 2% and 40% off and calculated at the time of sale. You are welcome to ask your pharmacist about the amount of your savings under the program when you purchase a prescription. You also may provide your pharmacist with another drug discount card or program and ask whether that card or program would provide greater savings than the Costco Member Prescription Program. During the initial implementation period, customers who lack insurance may have access to program pricing on a one-time basis without having enrolled.
