340B Discount Prescription Program
Am I eligible? Yes! If you receive care at Betances Health Center and are Uninsured, Underinsured or have Child Health Plus A or Medicare Part D insurance.
What do I have to do? Just bring your prescription to Madison Drugs (located next door) or ask your doctor to submit your prescription to the pharmacy. Stop by the pharmacy, pay the discounted amount, and leave with your medication (just as you normally do). You can get refills there too. What if I already have health insurance? (Such as private insurance, Family Health Plus or Child Health Plus B? If your drug is not covered by your insurance or you have not yet met your deductible, you may save money through the 340B program. Are there additional benefits of the 340B Program and Madison Drugs? Every patient who participates in the 340B Program will receive free telephone re-fill reminders, free health education materials for people with diabetes and hypertension, and free delivery of medication within the 10002 zip code.
In 1992, Section 340B of the Public Health Service Act was enacted. Section 340B requires drug manufacturers to provide outpatient drugs to entities like Betances Health Center at a reduced price. In combination with our partnering pharmacy, Madison Drugs, these savings of about 40% on brand name drugs are passed on to Betances’ patients who are eligible.
As a federally-qualified community health center (FOHC) network, we meet national standards for affordable, accessible, comprehensive health care services. We also participate in the federal medical professional liability program known as the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA).
