BI-LO HELPS REDUCE THE HIGH COST OF HEALTH CARE
Date: March 03, 2009
New Pharmacy Program Offers $4 Generic Prescriptions on Over 400 Medications
GREENVILLE, S.C.– Healthcare is top of mind for many consumers. As costs continue to rise, it’s becoming challenging for some individuals to pay for their necessary prescriptions. In fact, many simply do not buy the prescriptions they need. To help remedy the situation, BI-LO announced today that they are introducing a new program that brings $4 and $10 generic prescriptions to its customers.
The BI-LO Pharmacy program offers generic prescriptions for $4 for a 30-day supply and $10 for a 90-day supply of commonly prescribed dosages for many popular medications. To qualify, customers will need a BI-LO BONUSCARD®. Once they have their BONUSCARD, customers simply sign up for the free program and add a sticker to their card. With most prescriptions filled within 15 minutes, this is one more convenient, affordable solution for BI-LO customers.
“BI-LO is always looking for ways to make life easier for customers and this program is not only simple, it could, in some cases, literally be a lifesaver as people struggle to make ends meet,” said Curtis Hardin, Pharmacy Director for BI-LO. “We’re excited to be able to bring this helpful new program to all our full-service pharmacies.”
BI-LO’s $4 and $10 generic prescription program covers over 400 generic drugs that treat a wide range of conditions, including:
| Antibiotics | Cholesterol | Mental Health |
|---|---|---|
| Antifungal | Cough and Cold | Muscle Relaxants |
| Antiviral | Diabetes | Skin Conditions |
| Arthritis and Pain | Eye | Thyroid |
| Asthma and Respiratory | Gastrointestinal Health | Vitamins and Supplements |
| Antihistamine | Heart Health | Women’s Health |
