FamilyWize
A Good Idea
Description
The goal of FamilyWize is to reduce the cost of medicine for children, families, and individuals living in Ventura County, California who do not have prescription drug coverage.
There are no age, income or residency restrictions and there is no registration, activation, paperwork, or enrollment required. Interested individuals simply download the card from the program's website and present it at their local pharmacy. The FamilyWize card saves an average of 30% or more per prescription, covers most prescription drugs, and covers the entire family.
