Question 7

Is Pilly insurance?

Accepted Answer

No, Pilly is not insurance, nor is it intended to replace insurance. It is a free prescription savings card not affiliated with the Affordable Care Act or any other government program. When using Pilly, you are essentially paying “out-of-pocket” and must pay for all prescriptions as you receive them--there are no reimbursements. Pilly cannot be combined with insurance and is used in place of insurance to help you save up to 80% on prescriptions.
