About the Florida Discount Drug Card

The Florida Discount Drug Card is designed to lower the cost of prescriptions for all Florida residents. All Florida residents can participate: no age limit, no income requirement, no waiting period, no pre-existing condition restrictions, no membership fees and the card can be activated instantly. No tax dollars are used to make the Florida Discount Drug Card available. A public-private partnership with Envision Pharmaceutical Services (EPS) makes the discounts possible. EPS pharmacy benefits manager secures volume discounts on prescription drugs, passing savings onto consumers.

The Florida Discount Drug Card offers additional savings for Florida residents who are:

• Age 60 to 64, without prescription drug coverage, and do not belong to a Medicare Part D plan;
• Or, under age 60, without prescription drug coverage and with an annual family income of less than 300% of the federal poverty level.

Qualifying incomes include:

• $34,470 per year for an individual
• $46,530 per year for a family of two
• $70,650 per year for a family of four
• Qualifying incomes for families larger than four are available upon request

Getting a card is simple. Printable cards can be downloaded directly from the Florida Discount Drug Card Web site. Participants have the option of requesting a physical card mailed directly to a home or office for a small, one-time $1.50 activation fee which is assessed when purchasing the first prescription.

Participants who qualify for additional savings will be able to download a temporary card directly from the Florida Discount Drug Card Web site and will receive a physical card by mail for a small, one-time $1.50 activation fee which is only added to the cost of the first prescription. The temporary downloaded card activates within three hours.

Finding a pharmacy is easy. More than 60,000 pharmacies are participating nationwide, including all major chains. If the pharmacy’s usual and customary price is lower than the Florida Discount Drug price, the customer will pay the lower price. Additionally, if the customer qualifies for any other prescription discounts, they will always pay the lowest price.
