How do I use Blink for the first time?

First, select the form, dosage, and quantity you were prescribed. Then, select a nearby pharmacy where you’ll pick up your medication, create a free Blink Account, and prepay for your medication online. Once you pay, we’ll instantly email and text you a digital proof of payment (your Blink Card), to show to your pharmacist at pickup. Ask the pharmacist to process Blink as the primary payor – your copay is $0 at the register.

Do I need a prescription?

Yes. Even though Blink does not need a copy of your prescription, you must have a valid prescription from the doctor to pick up at the pharmacy.

Does my pharmacy accept Blink?

Local pharmacies serving every community accept Blink, including Walmart, Albertsons, Kroger, Kmart and many more. Most independent pharmacies also accept Blink. If your prescription is located at a pharmacy outside of the Blink Health network, transferring your prescription is easy. Call or visit your new pharmacy. The pharmacist will be happy to help you transfer your prescription.

Does Blink contact my pharmacy to fill my prescription?

No. Call the pharmacist to fill your prescription, like you always do. For new prescriptions, have your doctor call-in the prescription, e-prescribe or provide you with a physical copy to give to the pharmacist. For existing prescriptions, request your refill from the pharmacy and ask your pharmacist to process Blink as the primary payor.

Can I use Blink if I have insurance or Medicare?

Yes! Check the Blink Price and compare it to your insurance copay. If the Blink Price is lower than your copay or your medication isn’t covered, pay with Blink. Ask the pharmacist to process Blink as the primary payor. If you have multiple prescriptions, you can use Blink to pay for some, or all of them at your pharmacy.

Are there membership fees or monthly premiums?

No. There are no membership fees and no monthly premiums, ever.
