CORINTH, TX – Each year Americans fill over 3.6 billion prescriptions. When you break that down, that’s an average of one prescription per month for every man, woman and child living in this country. Yet, there are still 50 million people who have no health care benefits of any kind.

“The health care crisis is a real tragedy, especially when it comes to medications.” said Dr. Devin Holland, co-founder of the NuLegacy Rx Card. “Americans are spending more than ever on prescriptions; a whopping $709 per person in 2003 – up over 1600% from 1970 when that same average was just $43.”

“Our NuLegacy program offers everyone the opportunity to save up to 75% on prescriptions at over 56,000 pharmacies across the country. The best part of all is that we give away this program absolutely free; no one ever pays a dime to access these savings.” Dr. Holland went on to say. The free Rx card is a prescription discount card.

Jayne Carnall, of Flower Mound, Texas said she can’t believe it’s free to everyone. “What an incredible program. I just printed my card off the website and took it to the pharmacy. I saved $45.25 on one prescription.” Most NuLegacy cardholders experience an average savings of 20% – 50% depending on the type of drug. Generic drugs typically have larger savings than brand.

With U.S. prescription drug spending projected to increase from $200.7 billion in 2005 to $497.5 billion by 2016 – an increase of 148% in just 11 short years – it appears that things are only going to get worse for consumers. The NuLegacy drug discount card also offers significant savings on lab and imaging tests as well as diabetic testing supplies.
