Connecticut Department of Social Services Pharmaceutical Contract to the Elderly and Disabled
The ConnPACE program has served Connecticut's senior citizens and people with disabilities since 1986. The ConnPACE program is administered by the Connecticut Department of Social Services.
ConnPACE is a state-funded prescription drug assistance program which covers most prescription medications, insulin, and insulin syringes. With a ConnPACE membership card, your only out-of-pocket expense is your $30 annual application fee and $16.25 co-pay for each prescription.
When you apply for ConnPACE, there is a $30 annual application fee. Your application is then processed by the ConnPACE customer service center. Eligible members receive a ConnPACE membership card in the mail to use at participating Connecticut pharmacies.
Effective February 2008, all ConnPACE members will be issued a new, permanent membership card with a new membership ID. This new identification number will not be linked to personal information such as your Social Security number. ConnPACE members will no longer be receiving a new card each year when they re-apply for ConnPACE benefits. The new card you receive in February will be your permanent ConnPACE membership card for 2008 and upcoming years. There is no yearly dollar limit on the amount of prescriptions covered by ConnPACE. Generic drugs must be substituted for brand-name drugs, unless otherwise indicated by the prescribing physician.
A renewal notice is sent to ConnPACE members each year, and you must re-apply to continue your membership. If your initial application or renewal is not approved, the $30 application fee is refunded to you.
