Kroger must pay $17 million settlement

(CNN)– If you have used Kroger pharmacies in recent years, you might qualify for a payment from a proposed $17 million class-action settlement.

Kroger has agreed to the settlement for alleged overcharges of some insured customers for certain generic prescriptions between December 2018 and this month.

Kroger maintains it never over-charged customers and that discounted prices were only available to those who paid for a savings club membership.

Kroger says claims can be filed by December 21 in order to receive a pro-rated payment.
