Great news for residents of Blount County! The County Commission has entered into an agreement with Advantage Wellness America to provide residents with a prescription drug discount card similar to the KnoxRX card. The BlountRX card is scheduled to launch April 1st.
As I mentioned yesterday, everybody should get one of these cards. Not only can it save you money (I saved 64%, more than $90, on a recent purchase), every purchase using the card provides money to help local non-profits.
