Please check Blink if you have no insurance or a high deductible on meds, I am uninsured right now and use this to get mine for $12/month. You pay them using the app and when you go to the pharmacy they fill the Rx and no money owed to pharmacy

I've been using Blink Health a long time (since it started) I guess about a year,
And for me it's ALWAYS the cheapest cash price available at any pharmacy.
-Examples of what I paid in State of NJ at end-
(Drug prices vary depending where you live).
https://www.blinkhealth.com/i/BRJP4T





Note- The link above is my referral link, which gives me AND YOU both $15 off our next prescriptions, if you use it to fill a RX.
------------------------------------------------
It's different then a pharmacy discount card:
1. You pay online at blinkhealth website and you can go to any *pharmacy you want to. (Of course you'll need a prescription on file or renewal when you go to fill it).
2. People that have insurance can use it too - (Often the BH prices will be cheaper than your co-pays or high deductibles or if you reached your max pharmacy benefit).

* Note: Because Blink Health is new, MANY pharmacy employees will say something like "we don't take that or we don't know about that discount card/plan".
BUT TRUTH IS ALL PHARMACIES ACCEPT IT and anybody can use it (insured or uninsured.
-It's happened to be multiple times at a couple of CVS locations!!!!
And if showing them all the info and receipt from blink health (from my phone) doesn't convince them, and especially when they start getting abusive and mean to you (E.G. AC, NJ CVS in Renaissance Plaza),
CALL BLINK HEALTH Support Team and they will immediately ASSIST YOU,
1-855-215-9956 or 844-292-6221(8am-9pm or 8a-7pm weekends).

-- THEY WILL immediately call the pharmacy directly, advocate for you, so you leave with your prescription (you already paid for online).
They are the nicest and most caring healthcare company I've ever spoken with in my life And that's speaking as both a Nurse and patient.
--One time I was so upset by how horrible pharmacist treated me (over an hour trying to convince them to give me my medicine - when I was sick and couldn't drive elsewhere- I actually left with my rx in tears and the BH employee who helped me to get it stayed on the phone with me after I left the pharmacy with my medicine, trying to cheer me up and make sure I was ok - MY BP was really HIGH (needed the medicine that night and got it thanks to BH's assistance).
Their APP is amazing too - They text and send (email) you reminders to refill, receipts and helpful + useful information too.

(There's a few items they don't offer much discount on or don't include in available drugs Eg. blood sugar testing strips and insulin) but pills, generic or trade name, they cover them all).

Some recent (2016) prices I’ve paid, using my (free) blinkhealth.com online account=
$10.15 for Quinapril 40mg 30 tabs (generic for Accupril);
$8.25 for Metoprolol Tartrate 50mg 60 tabs (generic for Loppressor);
$4.95 for Norvasc (amlodipine) 10mg 30 tabs...

BH link from my account (above) says, "Share your link and give friends $15 off their first prescription. You’ll get $15 off your next Blink purchase.).

Add: I listed 2 phone numbers in my prior post that were saved in my phone (when I've called them from pharmacies and got immediate assistance)
which I tested now and are still valid,
but I just noticed on their website there is another phone # so I'll add that too:
1-844-265-6444 email: info@blinkhealth.com
https://www.blinkhealth.com/i/BRJP4T

Note: My referral link takes you directly to their website and we both will get $15 off if you use their service.

Agree, be very careful on the high deductible on meds part. I didn't know this before but was in a situation recently where I had to buy meds and found out that I didn't have prescription med coverage with my health care plan and ended up in debt because I had to buy the meds. (it was either become even more poor or lose my health)
