With RxPass, Prime members get free delivery of generic medications for a fee of $5 per month. The program now ships to every state except California, Louisiana, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Texas and Washington. It is not eligible to people with government-funded insurance such as Medicare or Medicaid.

RxPass, which debuted in January, continues Amazon’s efforts to break into the pharmacy industry, after the tech giant purchased online pharmacy PillPack in 2018 for $753 million and launched Amazon Pharmacy two years later.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
