A new statewide discount prescription assistance program, called Hawaii Rx Card, is now available. Administered by United Networks of America, the Hawaii Rx Card is free to all residents and will provide savings of up to 80% on both brand and generic medications (average savings are estimated to be roughly 30%). Hawaii Rx Card is accepted at most pharmacies across the state (68,000 pharmacies nationwide).
The Hawaii Rx Card was launched to help the uninsured residents of Hawaii afford their prescription medications. However, those who have prescription coverage can use this program for medications not covered by their health plan. Additionally, the program can also be used by those people who have health insurance coverage with no prescription benefits.
