Prosperi-Key Member Prescription Savings Card
Our goal is to get each Prosperi-Key member to worry less about the ability to cover their healthcare costs, so they have fewer hard choices to make about which bill they can pay in a given month.
DANBURY, Conn. (PRWEB)
December 09, 2021
Prosperi-Key today announced it has partnered with SingleCare— the free prescription savings service that offers consistently low prices on prescription drugs, to bring its members access to more affordable medications. The partnership connects Prosperi-Key members to SingleCare’s digital platform to help households that live paycheck to paycheck save on their prescriptions to improve access and adherence and ultimately help people live healthier lives.
ProsperiKey.org connects low-income people with support, services, and discounts tailored to them. Prosperi-Key was started by the United Way of Western Conn., and partners with local United Ways across the country to bring opportunities, like SingleCare, to a population termed ALICE® (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed). Too often these lower-income households struggle to get by yet are ineligible for federal and state safety net programs.
SingleCare is now offering a free dedicated savings card available to Prosperi-Key Members at ProsperiKey.org/category/health, enabling them to save up to 80% on more than 10,000 prescription medications at nearby pharmacies. SingleCare’s prescription savings program is accepted at 35,000 pharmacies nationwide, including CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Costco and Albertsons, and is free and easy to use, with no additional forms required, making this “Prosperi-Key Perk” a convenient way for Prosperi-Key members to save money.
“Prescription drug costs continue to skyrocket, while wages remain the same. Being able to afford necessary medications has become an increasing challenge, even when you have insurance, especially with high deductible plans,” said Kim Morgan, CEO, Prosperity Digital Marketplace. “That’s why we were so excited when SingleCare partnered with Prosperi-Key. SingleCare and our other partners recognize that there’s a significant population out there who can use a hand up — in the form of perks that other populations rely on every day. Our members work hard every day, and SingleCare can help them stay healthy.”
“Millions of Americans are struggling with the high costs of prescriptions, some even sacrificing their medications in order to pay bills,” said Vilmarie Gilliam, vice president of partnerships at SingleCare. “SingleCare is dedicated to driving down the cost of prescriptions and we’re thrilled to partner with Prosperi-Key to help communities in need access more affordable medications.”
Added Morgan: “Our goal is to get each Prosperi-Key member to worry less about the ability to cover their healthcare costs, so they have fewer hard choices to make about which bill they can pay in a given month.”
