Debbie Cole, president of Advantage Wellness of America, e-mailed to let me know that the BlountRX prescription drug discount card website is up and running and accepting enrollments at www.blountrxcard.com.

This is a great deal for Blount Co. residents. You get discounts on your prescriptions at local pharmacies, and Blount Co. gets a percentage of the claim filing fee to help fund local non-profits. It's a win-win for everybody.

There is a similar program for Knox Co. residents at www.knoxrxcard.com.

For folks outside the East Tennessee area, a membership card with the same discount benefits is available at www.advantagerxcard.com.

There is no cost to the consumer for any of the discount card programs.
