Mayor Joseph Maturo, Jr. would like to remind residents that The Town of East Haven, through its association with the Connecticut Conference of Municipalities (CCM), the statewide association of towns and cities, has already saved East Haven residents over $ 159,000 in prescription costs since joining CCM’s Prescription Drug Discount Program in January 2013.That represents a 55% savings over what East Haven residents would have paid for 3534 prescriptions filled thus far.
At that time, every household in East Haven was mailed the card. Cards can be used by all residents regardless of age, income or existing health coverage. There are no enrollment forms, membership fees, restrictions or limits on frequency of use for residents. Residents can print out a card easily by visiting www.CTRxDiscountCard.com, and selecting East Haven from the drop-down menu. Mayor Maturo’s office also has cards readily available. The discount cards are widely accepted at many national chain pharmacies and most local independent pharmacies. All participating pharmacies in East Haven had been given a supply of these cards as well.
Discount cards may also be used to save on human-based medications prescribed for family pets. If the prescription can be filled at participating retail pharmacies, you will receive a discount. Discounts are also offered on other medical services including vision, Lasik and hearing services.
