Welcome to the Coast2Coast Rx Card! Your entire family will truly enjoy the savings up to 65% for each prescription filled and overall savings of up to 40% annually. Please take the time to familiarize yourself with all of the benefits of the discount prescription card.

The Coast2Coast Rx Card includes two fantastic additional benefits: lab and imaging at substantially discounted prices. These benefits are for uninsureds or underinsureds that don't have the two benefits included in their health plan.

If it looks to good to be true, it probably has had massive plastic surgery, liposuction, and a boob job.

Under an agreement with Financial Marketing Concepts, Inc. approved by the Ellis County Commissioners’ Court last month, a new prescription discount program has been launched in Ellis County.

“We are always exploring programs that are of benefit to our citizens,” said County Judge Carol Bush. “We are proud to be able to provide our residents with additional relief in the face of rising prescription drug costs.”

The Ellis County/Coast2Coast prescription discount card offers significant savings for the uninsured and underinsured residents of Ellis County. Even residents with prescription coverage can use the card to save money on drugs that are not covered by their health plan – such as medications for family pets, for instance.

“Most importantly, there is no cost to use the card, and no cost to the taxpayers of Ellis County,” Bush said. “In fact, the county receives a royalty on a per-filled-prescription basis. The royalty comes out of the pharmacy dispensing fee, so there is no increased cost to the person who is using the card.”

Savings with the Coast2Coast card are expected to be greater than those experienced by users of the National Association of Counties prescription discount card available in Ellis County since 2006.

“We have reviewed the data provided by Coast2Coast and the data provided by NACo, and it looks like card users could see as much as a 15 percent greater discount with the Coast2Coast card,” said special projects director Holly Davis.

Davis also noted that in Dallas County, where the Coast2Coast plan was implemented last year, almost four times as many residents utilized the Coast2Coast card compared to the NACo card.

“This card will help people put some money back in their pockets to meet other necessities,” said Bush. “This is important in these difficult economic times; and if we can take the bite out of purchasing medications, we may actually be helping people to improve their health and the health of their families.”
