Affordable Prescription Program Expands

(NewsUSA) - Americans deserve access to quality, affordable health care and medications, yet some families today aren't filling prescriptions because of high costs or lack of health insurance.

To help Americans get the medications they need, Walmart's expanding its convenient $10, 90-day prescription program to mail delivery. Regardless of whether consumers live close to a Walmart pharmacy, they can now receive a 90-day supply of approximately 300 generic prescriptions for $10 via free mail delivery.

"We strive to find innovative pharmacy solutions that better serve all of our customers' needs," said Dr. John Agwunobi, president of Walmart's health and wellness division. "Now, for the first time, we're able to provide our customers in every rural town or big city across the nation with more affordable prescription medicines through a convenient, free mail delivery system."

In addition to access to 300 generics, Walmart's mail delivery program provides more than 3,000 other affordable brand and generic prescriptions, all via free mail delivery.
