The MiRx Card is a new Michigan prescription drug discount card program that is designed to lower prescription drug costs for Michigan residents who do not have prescription drug coverage. There is no cost for the card and there is no cost to enroll in the program.
The MiRx Card represents a major step in the way that Michigan delivers prescription drug coverage to residents who may not otherwise be able to afford their prescription drugs. There is no age limit to participate in the program. The MiRx Card provides discounts at the more than 2500 participating pharmacies around the State.
Michigan residents may qualify for the MiRx Card if they have an income levels at or below the State’s median income level. The median income level for a single individual is $27,930 and for a family of four the income level is $56,550.
MiRx Card enrollees will present their cards at participating pharmacies and can expect savings of up to 20% off the retail price of common prescription drugs. Savings will depend on the kind of drugs used and if they are generic or brand.
