Walgreens Class Settlement

Settlement Website | File A Claim | FAQ pdf

A proposed Settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit on behalf of individuals, health insurers, and other entities who paid for prescription drugs from Walgreens. The class action lawsuit, Russo, et al. v. Walgreen Co., No. 1:17-cv02246, relates to how Walgreens determined its usual and customary prices in submitting claims for prescription reimbursement, specifically whether it should have considered its Prescription Savings Club prices in determining its usual and customary prices. To resolve the claims, the proposed Settlement will provide for $100,000,000 ($100M) to be paid by Walgreens.
