The Livingston County Prescription Drug Discount Program was initially
created by the Livingston County Board of Commissioners to assist
Livingston County senior citizens, and disabled residents, who have
no
prescription drug coverage, to offset some of the costs for their
prescription drugs. This group discount is made available through the
Ingham Health Plan Corporation and applies to most medicines that the
doctor prescribes, excluding over-the-counter drugs.
To qualify you must be a Livingston
County resident, who is either disabled or over the age 60 and have no other
prescription coverage. There are no enrollment costs to applicants and
the program provides an average of 20% to 30% discount off of
prescription drug prices at participating pharmacies. The discounts vary
depending on the prescription and not all prescriptions are covered.
Health
Department staff will register applicants for the Livingston County Prescription Discount Card by
either phone, FAX, walk in, or mail-in registration. They are then
enrolled on-line via the Ingham Health Plan Corporation.
LCDPH mails the discount
prescription card to the applicant in a packet that includes a variety
of information and services in approximately 10-14 days.
