Scripta: Prescription drugs savings

Teammates have access to Scripta, a benefit that helps you save money.

  • Your prescriptions at the lowest cost: Scripta searches for the best prices to help you and your doctor choose the medications best for you.
  • Monthly savings reports: Scripta creates monthly, personalized savings reports that list lower-priced drug options and savings strategies. The suggested alternatives treat the same medical conditions as the medications you’re already taking. 
  • A helpful tool to discuss with your doctor: Doctors usually don’t know how much your medications cost. Scripta gives you and your doctor information to help decide which drugs are best for your health and your wallet.
