Tips for Managing Your Health Care Expenses
Note:  This information is also known as Consumer Directed Health Care

Two major retail pharmacies have recently announced campaigns to make certain prescription drugs available for a very affordable price, some even for free.  The programs are ideal for those without health insurance, but can be utilized by anyone, including those who have prescription insurance coverage.  The two programs listed below offer prescriptions for less than the co-pay MCC employees who are enrolled in MESSA or the Health Plus LK plan are required to pay.  The Health Plus I plan does not have a co-pay for prescriptions.

Please visit the websites below for more information and keep these cost savings options in mind the next time you fill a prescription.
