About this service
Eligible seniors 65 years and older pay a maximum of $25 for prescription drugs listed on the Saskatchewan Formulary and those approved under Exception Drug Status.
Your eligibility is determined by age and the income reported on your income tax return filed with the Canada Revenue Agency. You must:
- Be a Saskatchewan resident 65 years of age or older with a valid Saskatchewan Health card.
- Be eligible for the provincial age credit, which is based on the annual net income you reported on Line 236 of your income tax form in the previous year.
- Seniors who are covered under federal government programs, such as the federal Non-Insured Health Benefits Program or Veterans Affairs are not eligible for the Seniors' Drug Plan.
If you already pay less than $25 per prescription, you will continue to do so. For example, if your medication is $25 per prescription under the Seniors' Drug Plan, but $11 under the Special Support program, you will continue to pay $11 for that prescription.
