NACo Resources

The Linn County Board of Supervisors has partnered with the National Association of Counties (NACo) to offer Linn County residents two discount programs to assist with prescriptions and dental work.

Prescription Discount Card Program

This no-cost program helps Linn County residents save an average of 30% off the full retail cost of prescription medications that are not covered under a traditional insurance plan. The discounts also apply to pet medications at participating pharmacies. The discount cards are available free of charge to Linn County residents. The program is offered through NACo in partnership with Caremark.

To apply, find more information, or see if your pharmacy participates in the program, visit the NACo website.

Dental Discount Program

The NACo Dental Discount Card Program is designed to help uninsured and under-insured county residents save money on their dental service expenses. The program complements health insurance plans and works in conjunction with health savings accounts, flexible spending accounts and health reimbursement arrangements. However, this program is not insurance. The dental discount program is available to all Linn County residents.

Program costs:

  • $59 per year or $5.95 per month for individuals
  • $69 per year or $7.95 per month for families

For more information or to see if your dental provider participates in the program, visit the NACo Dental Discount Program website.
