May 5, 2008
The retailer says "Phase 3" of its plan, which began in 2006, will also include some over the counter medication. "More and more people find health care, and particularly prescribed medicines, difficult to afford. This is one of the reasons we continually work to take our $4 Prescription Program to the next level," said Dr. John Agwunobi, Wal-Mart senior vice president and president, health and wellness. The company says its 90-day option gives more choices to customers and physicians who may have been limited to mail order prescriptions in the past. Included in the latest offering:
Wal-Mart said up to 95 percent of the prescriptions written in the majority of therapeutic categories are included in the $4 Prescription Program available at Wal-Mart, Neighborhood Market and Sam's Club pharmacies nationwide. The new prices for these prescriptions are available for commonly prescribed dosages for up to 30-days or 90-days. Launched in Tampa, Florida in September 2006, Wal-Mart's $4 Prescription Program has expanded to 49 states. Wal-Mart does not operate in-store pharmacies in its North Dakota stores.
