Imagine hearing the pleas of community leaders pleading for help for their people. The people amount to millions in the nation and an unreal burden is upon the president of a small Atlanta company American Consultants Rx Inc (ACIRX).
It started out as a question in November 2004, that later turned out to be a plea." Is there anything that can help my people with their medications?" This was a question from a director over 13 mostly rural counties in Georgia. A service, entertainment and shopping online site were first enhanced at 2 SPEND LESS where people could come to one site for assistance. American Consultants Rx Inc. (ACIRX) was also born as a community service project of American Consultants Inc., an agency that brokers in insurance and services across the country. It consisted of a discount prescription card program that would be donated free of charge to the heads of non-profit organizations, doctors, hospitals, churches, and even the public, and networked with over fifty thousand chain pharmacies across the U.S.
The company donated initially over 2.7 million ACIRX discount prescription cards free of charge that saved people up to 40% off of drugs and 60% off of generic drugs. One card would take care of a family and there was no expiration period. Directors of non-profit organizations, doctors, social workers, state and federal agencies, churches, etc. began ordering these cards. When ACIRX reached twenty five million orders, their only sponsor basically quit, it was too much.
ACIRX recently released up to 20 million cards before Christmas and distributed them to many organizations leaders . ACIRX also made the card available at ACIRX org . Just click on the card button and print the free ACIRX discount card that will be honored at over 50,000 chain pharmacies. Organizations who have not received the cards can also register their groups online to be on the list to receive the next batch of donated cards. The president of ACIRX , Charles Myrick promised not to quit on the many groups and their people. The project is not a cure all, but it is something... HOPE.
