We provide consumers, businesses, families or individuals with a great alternative for saving money on medical costs!

We also provide in your membership a Locate provider service and a RX lookup online as well, so you may check for providers in your area. Please review summary below and the additional information provided on this site, then if you wish to enroll continue to our secured enrollment site, with your provided Access Code (found on Rates and Services tab in menu).

Please note "This is not Insurance!"

The plan member is obligated to pay for all health care services but will receive a discount from those health care providers who have contracted with the discount plan organization.

Brief summary of Benefits listed below:
PHARMACY
MAIL ORDER PRESCRIPTION PLAN - for maintenance (long-term) medications
To ensure members always save money on their prescription drugs, a unique mail order program was created to complement the network pharmacy benefit. Since most maintenance medications are purchased in 90 day supplies, members maximize savings and have the convenience of home delivery (at no additional charge) through Precision RX. Accuracy is assured by requiring every order to pass seven quality checkpoints before shipping.
Prices average 10% below AARP mail order pricing
If the member finds a lower retail price from a local retail pharmacy, the Mail Order Prescription Plan will beat that price by $5.00 on brand name and generic medications priced at $10.00 or more. Not valid in conjunction with other discount or insurance cards.
Prescriptions are delivered right to your door; no postage or dispensing fees added.
Unlike competitive programs that restrict available medications to their "approved" list, the Mail Order Prescription Plan is an "open formulary", so doctors may prescribe the most effective medication to treat the member's ailment or condition.
*The $5.00 guaranteed savings cannot be used in conjunction with other discount or insurance cards.
RETAIL - PHARMACY
The neighborhood pharmacy program assures members the lowest price on prescription drugs, saving 10% to 60% on most prescriptions.
It's simple to use. The member simply presents the membership card to the pharmacist with the prescription. The pharmacist calculates the discount and the member pays the discounted price. No other forms required.
Highlights
10% to 60% savings on most medications.
Over 56,000 national and regional pharmacy chains participate as well as independent pharmacies.
No pharmacy program is complete unless it includes both retail locations where members may fill acute care medications and a mail order program so members may optimize their savings by purchasing maintenance prescriptions in 90 day supplies to treat ongoing ailments.
Do not call the pharmacy for price quotes. Prices may change from day to day and they cannot be given over the telephone. Visit www.rxpricequotes.com to look up drug prices by location.
*Pharmacy Discounts are Not Insurance and are Not Intended as a Substitute for Insurance. The discount is only available at participating pharmacies.
DENTAL CARE
Highlights
Members save 15% to 50%* on everything from general dentistry and cleanings to root canals, crowns and orthodontia.
Over 71,000 ** dental practice locations.
Save on routine dental services such as x-rays and fillings.
Save on specialty care such as orthodontics and periodontics where available.
Dentists are credentialed and recredentialed on an ongoing basis.
Before scheduling an appointment, the member will call the number on the back of their card to speak with a Patient Advocacy representative. The representative will contact providers in the network to ensure the dental office understands the Dental Care discount card and is accepting new patients. Or locate a provider with our Locate Provider Service online (link provided in above paragraph)
The representative will then contact the member to provide several different dental care locations so the member may select the provider that most meets their specific needs and book an appointment.
Dental benefit is not available to VT residents.
*Actual costs and savings vary by provider and geographical area.
** According to the Aetna Enterprise Provider Database as of November 1, 2006.

PHYSICIAN VISIT & HOSPITAL
The Physician Visit / Hospital Network provides discounts on health care services at physicians' offices and hospitals. Save 10% to 40% and more at over 285,000 providers throughout the country, including family physicians, specialists, facilities and hospitals. They also save on cosmetic surgery procedures, including skin resurfacing, acne scars, liposuction, and more.
The program utilizes one of the largest physician networks in the nation. This nationally recognized network "owns" their physician and hospital contracts so it cannot lose providers due to cancellation of a lease agreement. Plus, the network maintains control of physician education and service levels.
The Physician Visit / Hospital Network is effective and easy to use. Locate providers online in your area, or call the toll-free number located on your membership card. Present your card at the provider's office and receive immediate savings on services provided. Since there are no age or medical history restrictions, anyone can use this benefit.
For hospital visits, members MUST pre-register before any procedure(s) are performed (or within 48 hours of emergency room admittance.) A representative will coordinate all of the resources and negotiate with the provider/facility for a contracted savings.
