Walgreens Class Action Settlement 2025 – How to Check Eligibility and Claim Before the Deadline

In 2025, Walgreens agreed to a $100 million settlement to resolve a major class action lawsuit accusing the company of overcharging insurers and consumers for prescription drugs. If you or your organization used insurance to fill prescriptions at Walgreens between January 1, 2007, and November 18, 2024, you could be entitled to a cash payout.

This article explains who qualifies, how the money is being distributed, and how to file your claim before the April 17, 2025 deadline.

Overview

The lawsuit claims Walgreens inflated its “usual and customary” (U&C) prescription drug prices by failing to include its Prescription Savings Club (PSC) discounts when reporting prices to insurers. As a result, both individuals and third-party payors (like insurance providers) may have been overbilled for medications.

While Walgreens denies any wrongdoing, it’s settling the case to avoid a drawn-out legal battle. That’s good news for eligible customers and insurers—it means money is available, but you have to act to claim it.

Eligibility

You’re eligible if you meet all three of these criteria:

• You purchased prescription drugs from Walgreens
• You used insurance (not just cash) to pay for those prescriptions
• The purchase occurred between January 1, 2007, and November 18, 2024

Who’s Not Eligible?

• Consumers who paid fully out-of-pocket with no insurance
• Insurance companies/employers with separate pricing contracts with Walgreens
• Walgreens employees and those directly involved in the lawsuit

Claimant Category	% of Fund	Payment Basis
Individual Consumers	20%	Based on out-of-pocket costs for covered prescriptions

Payouts will depend on how many valid claims are filed and how much each person or organization spent.

Why It Matters

Prescription drug pricing has long been a hot topic in the U.S., and this case highlights the need for price transparency and accountability. If you’ve used insurance at Walgreens in the last 17 years, there’s a good chance you overpaid without even knowing it.

This settlement gives consumers and organizations a way to recoup some of those costs—and sends a message that deceptive pricing tactics won’t go unchecked.

Tips

• Check your pharmacy or insurance portals for records from 2007–2024
• Gather any receipts, EOBs (explanation of benefits), or statements
• Submit your claim early to avoid last-minute issues
• If you had multiple prescriptions or high co-pays, your payout could be higher
