Co-pay card

Okay kiddo, let's talk about co-pay cards! Have you ever gone to the doctor or the pharmacy with your mommy or daddy and seen them pay money for their medicine? Well, sometimes grown-ups need to take medicine that can be really expensive. A co-pay card is like a little helper that helps grown-ups pay for their medicine.

Here's how it works: Let's say someone has to take a medicine that costs $100. But when they go to the pharmacy, they only have to pay $10 because they have a co-pay card. That means the co-pay card paid $90 so that the person didn't have to pay all of the money themselves.

Co-pay cards are really helpful because they make it easier for people to afford the medicine they need to feel better. They're like a little superhero that saves the day!
