Determining the exact cost of Viagra requires knowing your specific UnitedHealthcare plan and prescription details. Without insurance, a typical cost for a 30-tablet supply (100mg) ranges from $600 to $800, depending on the pharmacy. This price fluctuates based on pharmacy and quantity purchased.
Factors Affecting Viagra Cost with UnitedHealthcare
Your out-of-pocket expenses with UnitedHealthcare will vary depending on your plan’s formulary (list of covered medications), your copay, and your deductible. Generic sildenafil (the active ingredient in Viagra) is often significantly cheaper than brand-name Viagra and may be preferred under your plan’s coverage. Contact UnitedHealthcare or your pharmacist for specific pricing information based on your plan and medication choice. Pre-authorization might be needed for brand-name Viagra, adding another layer to the process.
Exploring Cost-Saving Strategies
Consider exploring UnitedHealthcare’s mail-order pharmacy option, often offering discounts. Additionally, using a pharmacy’s discount card or patient assistance programs offered by Pfizer (the manufacturer of Viagra) may reduce expenses further. Compare prices across different pharmacies to find the best deal.
