We have helped a lot of people save money on their care.” They further noted, “our research indicates that, of our total consumer base, approximately 18 million people got care they otherwise could not afford. We also work closely with physicians and pharmacists - America’s healthcare heroes - to provide research and tools that improve access to care every day,”.

“When patients have exhausted other options, our corporate philanthropy arm, GoodRxHelps, provides free prescriptions and medical services in partnership with clinics across America. We are proud of our focus on minority communities, who face disproportionately greater challenges in obtaining affordable care,” the CEOs added.
