Walgreens Savings Club settlement is legitimate and in your favor
Walgreens customers may be entitled to compensation as part of a class action lawsuit settlement. While the settlement is not yet final, customers who meet certain criteria may file a claim to potentially receive a portion of the proposed $100 million settlement. The lawsuit alleges that Walgreens wrongfully charged customers with insurance more for generic drugs compared to members of the Prescription Savings Club, which was discontinued in August. Club members paid an annual fee to access generic drugs at fixed prices without using insurance benefits.
To qualify for payment, individuals must have purchased one or more prescription drugs from Walgreens between January 1, 2007, and November 18, 2024, and utilized insurance coverage to fill those prescriptions. Walgreens refutes any wrongdoing and asserts that it accurately reported its standard drug prices. It is important to note that the court has yet to determine the validity of these claims.
In light of the settlement notice, it is advisable to conduct research if you receive an unexpected email regarding a class action lawsuit or any request for information. Pamela Hernandez from the Better Business Bureau suggests taking the time to investigate further by looking up the case number or settlement details online. Class action lawsuits typically have websites displaying relevant court documents and contact information for inquiries.
Customers have until April to submit a claim if they meet the necessary criteria outlined in the settlement. Walgreens has made a statement regarding the lawsuit, expressing the company’s denial of liability and their belief that the claims lack merit. The Prescription Savings Club was established over 15 years ago to provide affordable medication options to uninsured and underinsured individuals. However, the litigation surrounding the program forced its discontinuation. The resolution of this lawsuit allows Walgreens to focus on a strategic turnaround plan that benefits all stakeholders, including employees, patients, customers, and shareholders.
