Gov. Hobbs signs executive order to lower cost of prescription drugs in Arizona

  • August 6, 2025

PHOENIX (AZFamily) — A new executive order signed by Gov. Katie Hobbs aims to lower the cost of prescription drugs for Arizonans through a new initiative, beginning early next year.

On Wednesday, Gov. Hobbs announced that Arizonans will soon be able to join ArrayRx, a multi-state public pharmacy program that offers discounted prescription drug prices. The governor’s office says Arizonans who use the ArrayRx Discount Card program will be able to lower the cost of their prescriptions by up to 80 percent.

“For too long and for too many families, rising costs, including prescription drug prices, have put the Arizona Promise out of reach. We are changing that,” Hobbs said in a statement. “I’m proud to take action to keep money in Arizonans’ pockets, create pathways to health and wellbeing, and restore the Arizona Promise for families across the state.”

BIG NEWS: We’re lowering the costs of prescription drugs in Arizona. 

This Executive Order will help Arizonans save 20–80% on prescriptions through ArrayRX –—at no cost to the state.

The program offers free enrollment with no membership costs. Gov. Hobbs says Arizonans will be able to save between 80% for generic drugs and 18% for brand-name drugs per prescription. In addition, the card can be used at over 65,000 pharmacies across the nation.

Coverage will include all FDA-approved prescriptions and discounts on over-the-counter medications and supplies, such as diabetes test supplies.

Arizona joins Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Ohio and Connecticut in collaboration with the program. Arizonans will be able to enroll online at ArrayRxCard.com or by calling 800-913-4146 beginning in early 2026.
