CINCINNATI, July 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Kroger Health, the healthcare division of The Kroger Co. (NYSE: KR), today announced the launch of its revamped Kroger Health Savings Club (KHSC), a membership program developed with the goal of providing members and their families with savings on commonly prescribed medications.

"We are proud to announce the relaunch of the Kroger Health Savings Club, which will provide greater accessibility and affordability for prescription medications," said Colleen Lindholz, president, Kroger Health. "Our goal is to empower individuals to prioritize their health by relieving the financial burden of costly medications. We hope to continue expanding these services for the communities we serve in an effort to help our customers live healthier lives."

The KHSC membership powered by RxSense®️ includes individual and family options that allow members to save money on thousands of prescription medications. The program makes it possible for members to save on their medications even if those medications are not covered in the person's insurance plan. Through the program, prices may be lower than Kroger's retail prices, and they may also be lower than the customers' copay or coinsurance benefit. The family membership permits enrolling up to six household members including pets. The KHSC will provide members with the convenience of using their savings club membership at Kroger Family of Pharmacies locations, excluding those located in the state of Washington.

KHSC is not an insurance plan and cannot be combined with any federal, state or employee-funded program, such as Medicare, Medicaid or health insurance. Individuals can use KHSC or another discount program but cannot use both together at the same time.
