AffirmedRx prescription pricing tool now correct on member portal, app

The issue with the AffirmedRx pricing tool on the Pulse App and AffirmedRx member portal (see recent Purdue Today article) has been corrected, and both sources now reflect the correct prescription prices. Prices paid at the pharmacy continue to be correct and were not affected by the pricing tool issue.

Individuals can also check pricing before visiting the pharmacy by calling AffirmedRx Member Services at 877-828-1049 or emailing the patient care advocates at PCA@AffirmedRx.com. Prescription coverage information, including the 2025 AffirmedRx prescription plan coverage chart, is available online.
