The retail and online pharmacy space has been very active recently with many companies attempting to improve and disrupt the current model, which leaves more than 18 million who say they cannot afford their medications.
For the past four years, MyFreePharmacy, an all-inclusive membership service has been making paying for prescriptions easier and more affordable. The company offers more than 600 medications for a flat monthly fee ($19.95 for an individual and $29.95 for a family) that includes standard shipping. Strategic partnerships make it possible for MyFreePharmacy to control costs and make prescriptions more affordable for everyone, including those without health insurance. MyFreePharmacy also offers a more affordable option for those whose insurance deductibles are so high that they never meet them, which means they typically pay full price for medications.

"MyFreePharmacy currently mails out truckloads of FREE prescriptions nationwide every month to our members," says founder Doug Behrens. "The program is a game-changer – where else can you get FREE prescriptions? We want to make a difference out there, and we are doing it for our members, one prescription at a time," he explains.
