Services: | This program is open to all Maine residents with incomes up to 350% of the Federal poverty level. You may also be eligible if your family income is higher, if you spend more than 5% of your family income on prescription drugs or 15% on medical expenses. If your application is approved, you will get a Maine Rx Plus card. To get your savings, show this card to your pharmacist each time you buy prescription drugs. You will need to reapply each year. The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) will send you a new application when it is time to reapply. If you have MaineCare Full Benefits you do not need to apply for this program, because MaineCare Full Benefits gives you a better discount on your prescriptions. |
Fees: | The price you pay will vary with each prescription and whether you are enrolled in the Low Cost Drugs for the Elderly or Disabled program. |
