Vermont Joins ArrayRx for Drug Savings

Vermont is officially joining ArrayRx, a multi-state prescription drug discount program led by State Treasurer Mike Pieciak, set to launch by January 2027 and potentially sooner — offering Vermonters up to 80% off generics and 20% off brand-name drugs, with savings of $200+ per month reported in other states. The free discount card, usable when insurance doesn’t cover meds or as a cheaper alternative, will count toward deductibles if claims are filed. Backed by AARP, BlueCross BlueShield, and the Health Care Advocate, the program faces pushback from the Vermont Pharmacists Association, who worry about pharmacist earnings and savings competitiveness — but Pieciak insists local pharmacists largely support it and promises direct support to resolve any issues. Governor Phil Scott has signed the legislation, marking a major step toward affordable, accessible medication for all Vermonters — with privacy protections in place.
