BuzzRx

Discounts prescription medications through partner pharmacies.

Overview

BuzzRx provides a free prescription savings program via a drug discount card and mobile app. By negotiating lower prices with major pharmacies—such as CVS, Walgreens, and Rite Aid—the service offers discounts on medications, allowing users to save up to about 80% on prescription costs. To use it, customers access the free card through the app or website and present it at participating pharmacies, where the discount is applied to the cash price of the prescription; BuzzRx earns revenue by negotiating these lower prices and sharing the savings with users. In addition, for every prescription filled using the service, BuzzRx donates to nonprofit organizations like Make-A-Wish. Compared with others, BuzzRx emphasizes its broad national pharmacy network, free access, and a social-impact component through donations. The company's goal is to help patients lower their prescription costs while supporting charitable causes through a portion of each savings transaction.

Buzz Health and Push Health partner to show best prescription prices before patients fill

Buzz Health has partnered with Push Health to show patients the best available prescription price before they reach the pharmacy. Push Health, a digital platform for self-pay virtual care, will build Buzz Health's RxCompare tool into its app by year-end. RxCompare checks participating discount cards, including BuzzRx, and returns the lowest price and card details before the prescription is sent. It targets patients who pay out of pocket, have insurance gaps, or await prior authorisations. "No single discount card has the best price for every drug at every pharmacy," said Lathe Bigler, senior vice president of business strategy at Buzz Health. He said e-prescribing vendors report that fewer than 3% of attached discount cards are used at the counter. The companies plan to add cross-pharmacy comparisons and are exploring ways to show prices to providers during virtual visits.
