Savings on Prescription Medications

We offer employees, non-Medicare eligible retirees, and eligible dependents covered under a University sponsored health care plan up to a 25 percent discount on copayments for prescriptions filled here.

Eligibility for savings on your prescriptions is dependent on the health plan you have with the University:

• University employees enrolled in the YOUR PPO Plan or the YOUR HSA-Eligible Plan will enjoy a discount off the out-of-pocket cost of each medicine.
• University employees enrolled in the YOUR HSA-Eligible Health Care Plan will receive a discount off the usual out-of-pocket cost of each medicine (prior to reaching their deductible) and then a 25%reduction in copayment once their deductible has been met.

Pick-up and Delivery Services for Off-site Employees

Picking up a prescription: If you’re swinging by from offsite, the pharmacy boasts four convenient parking spots in the nearby Whipple Circle (off Crittenden Boulevard; if you’re using a GPS unit, input 256 Crittenden Blvd, 14620; or click here for Google Maps) reserved for employees and retirees retrieving medicines.

Free delivery service: The pharmacy is staffed to deliver medicines to most University off-site locations within Monroe County via the University courier service. We request that you order medications by 1 p.m. for next-business-day delivery. Just fill out our secure online delivery request form to begin the process. We will then send a secure payment link to your University email to process payment with your credit card or flexible spending debit card. Unfortunately, at this time, we are unable to accept cash or check when using the delivery service.
