About Iowa Drug Card
Iowa Drug Card is the state's free prescription assistance program. There are no enrolment forms to fill out and no restrictions on membership. Everyone is eligible regardless of age, income or health conditions. Iowa Drug Card is currently working with numerous organizations, clinics and hospitals to create awareness of the program with the help of Coach Hayden Fry. This program was created to help uninsured and underinsured Iowans afford their prescription medications. Those with health insurance can use the program on non-covered drugs. Both brand and generic medications are eligible for discounts ranging from 30%-75%. Iowa residents can obtain a free card, search drug pricing, and locate participating pharmacies by visiting www.IowaDrugCard.com. Anyone not able to obtain a card can visit any Kmart Pharmacy location in Iowa and ask to have their prescription processed through the Iowa Drug Card.
