Reply to comment by Keepinrealtruth in eli5: How does GoodRX (or any prescription savings group) work? by fourtwenny2389

GoodRx is specifically subject to a very recent FTC order requiring them to provide guarantees of data security and privacy. They have paid a fine for not doing so previously.

Whether you believe GoodRx will be more private/secure now that they have an explicit order and the eye of the FTC on them is up to you. Both "they fucked up once they'll do it again" and "they fucked up and now they'll have to clean up their act" are reasonable possible positions.

I work for a doctor's office and we do have a significant patient population that benefits from GoodRx coupons.

I use the provider page to search their drugs and send the coupons via print to PDF and email them. It seems to be working just fine, though I am sure the data coming from my IP address must make me look like a pill fiend.
