Univision Farmacia APP available for Hispanics

Univision Enterprises, the products and services division of Univision Communications Inc. (UCI), in partnership with Envision Rx Options and Hola Doctor, announced during its annual health week the launch of the Univision Farmacia app, currently available on iOS and Android. With over 1.7 million members enrolled, Univision Farmacia is the leading prescription drug discount program for U.S. Hispanics, bringing affordability to over 900,000 families. The Univision Farmacia app, available in Spanish, lets users search for medications, compare cost and find the nearest participating pharmacy offering the lowest price.
 
The new Univision Farmacia App is being rolled as part of Univision’s week-long initiative to empower and educate U.S. Latinos about principal health concerns and the importance of prevention and access to health care. Part of Univision Contigo, the company’s empowerment initiative, “Health Week” (#SaludEnUnivision) will offer information each day on topics ranging from health and wellness to access to healthcare.
 
“As a mission-driven Company, at Univision we continue to work to create the programs and services that will connect the community we serve with the information and resources that contribute to their well-being,” said Rick Alessandri, executive vice president, Univision Enterprises. “Univision Farmacia is an example of this commitment; the program delivers savings of up to 85 percent and due to high smartphone use by Hispanics, in fact nearly three out of four own a smartphone, the app puts access to these savings right at their fingertips.”
 
The app offers an online pricing tool to search for medication cost; the pharmacy locator helps users find by zip code or geo-location search one of 49,000 participating pharmacies including Walgreens, Rite Aid, Kmart, CVS/pharmacy and several thousand independent pharmacies. The app allows users to store in-case-of-emergency contacts and primary care physician information, as well as add medication info in easy-to-read formats. Additionally, download of the app grants users with automatic access to the Univision Monthly Newsletter which features special offers, select partner coupons, health tips and health screenings details.
