Kroger Prescription Drug Pricing Settlement is a proposed $17 million class action over how The Kroger Co. reported usual-and-customary prescription prices compared with its Rx Savings Club prices. If you paid with insurance for a prescription at a Kroger-owned or affiliated pharmacy between December 9, 2018 and August 23, 2026, you may seek a pro rata share of the fund. Cash-only purchases without insurance are not covered. File by December 21, 2026 at krogersavingsclubsettlement.com using your Notice ID and Confirmation Code. Documentation is required for claims of $8,000 or more. Kroger denies wrongdoing.

What Happened?

Plaintiffs allege Kroger inflated usual-and-customary prescription prices by not considering Rx Savings Club prices when it submitted insurance reimbursement claims, leaving insured customers paying more. Kroger denies the allegations and maintains that membership-only Savings Club prices are not its usual or customary prices.

The case is Kirkbride et al. v. The Kroger Co., No. 2:21-cv-00022 (S.D. Ohio). The settlement fund is $17,000,000. The Court has not decided who is right.

The claim deadline is December 21, 2026. Exclusion and objection deadlines are October 22, 2026. A fairness hearing is scheduled for January 11, 2027.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is usual-and-customary pricing, and why is the Kroger Savings Club at issue?
Pharmacies report a 'usual and customary' (U&C) price when they submit prescription claims for insurance reimbursement. This settlement, Kirkbride et al. v. The Kroger Co., No. 2:21-cv-00022 (S.D. Ohio), concerns whether Kroger should have considered its Rx Savings Club prices when it determined those U&C prices. Plaintiffs allege that not doing so left insured customers paying more. Kroger denies wrongdoing and says Savings Club prices — available to members who joined, paid an annual fee, and met other terms — are not its usual or customary prices. The Court has not decided who is right.
Who qualifies for the Kroger prescription pricing settlement?
The class is individuals in the United States and its territories who, from December 9, 2018 through August 23, 2026, paid in whole or in part for one or more prescription drugs at a Kroger-owned or -operated pharmacy (including affiliated banners) using insurance benefits. Cash-only purchases without insurance are not in the class. Judges, Kroger officers and directors, people who timely exclude themselves, and people who already sued Kroger over Savings Club U&C pricing (unless those claims were dismissed without prejudice) are excluded.
How much can I get from the Kroger $17 million settlement?
Kroger will pay $17,000,000 into a settlement fund. After court-approved attorneys’ fees, expenses, service awards, and administration costs, the net fund is paid pro rata to class members who file valid claims, scaled to how much each claimant paid out of pocket for qualifying insured prescriptions. No fixed per-person amount has been published. A fairness hearing is scheduled for January 11, 2027.
Do I need documentation to file a Kroger Savings Club claim?
Documentation of amounts paid is required when the total amount claimed is $8,000 or more. Claims under $8,000 generally rely on the Claim Form attestation; if the administrator cannot match you to Kroger’s known-claimant list, it may still ask for supporting documentation. File online using the Notice ID and Confirmation Code from your notice, or mail a paper claim form. The claim deadline is December 21, 2026. The exclusion and objection deadline is October 22, 2026.
How do I file a Kroger prescription pricing claim?
Submit a Claim Form online at krogersavingsclubsettlement.com using the Notice ID and Confirmation Code from your settlement notice, or mail a paper form to the administrator. Claims must be submitted or postmarked by December 21, 2026. Filing a valid claim is the only way to receive a payment from the net settlement fund.
What if I do nothing in the Kroger settlement?
If you do not file a valid claim by December 21, 2026, you will not receive a payment. Unless you exclude yourself by October 22, 2026, you will still be bound by the settlement if the Court approves it, including the release of U&C / Savings Club pricing claims against Kroger.
