How to use the Community Assistance Drug and Pharmacy Look-up

 To use the Drug Pricing and Pharmacy Look-up use the following instructions. 

First go to the website at http://caprxprogram.org/tjolly

Next click on the tab named "Drug Pricing & Pharmacy Look Up" located in the blue tab under the CAP logo.  (see picture to the left)

Once you click on this tab you will be taken to a screen that you choose between RX Drug Pricing or Pharmacy Locator.

For RX Drug Pricing:

Click on RX Drug Pricing and you will be taken to the HealthTrans site.

Enter Drug name (must be spelled correctly) and zip code you are inquiring about or select from the Commonly Used Drugs below.  Select the distance from the drop down. Click on GO! Located in lower right hand of box.

(You do not have to put in your address or the whole zip code.  The first 3 digits of your zip is fine.  The more info the better results you will have as far as location.) 

 On this screen you will fill in the pills per day and days. Then you press Price Drug to get your results.




On the next screen you will find the prices that will include the discounted price that you will receive using the discount card.  You can compare prices at the pharmacies by selecting the pharmacies located on the left hand side.  Each one you click will give you the price for that one.  When you select a pharmacy depending on your connection speed it can take a moment to get the results.  Whatever pharmacy is highlighted in dark green is the price shown.  Give it time!  Sometimes you can save money by simply going to a neighboring pharmacy.  (There have been times when pharmacy's within the same area have been 100's less.)

You have decided on the best price for the medication so all you need is to print out or take your FREE discount card to that pharmacy and get the medication.  You can print out a FREE card by clicking here --> Need Card! Or you can arrange to get a hard copy from any of these locations -> Get Card! or you can contact me at Mail Card!

I hope this helps you and will save you on your medication cost!  If you know of someone who could also use this service please send them the link.  Share this with your family and friends they will thank you for thinking of them.
