Galt Joins Effort To Offer Prescription Drug Discounts to Residents
Galt has signed on to the National League of Cities' prescription drug discount program, which offers city residents discounts of as much as 20% on medications insurance does not cover, the Sacramento Bee reports.
City Council member Andrew Meredith said the city will kick off the program March 26 and that all pharmacies in Galt are eligible to participate. Meredith said the program's discount cards also can be used for online and mail order prescription purchases.
The discount cards will be available at city hall (Lambert, Sacramento Bee, 3/18).
