Partnering with the nation's leading pharmacy operator.
Outpatient pharmacy operations require specialized expertise and resources that are oftentimes
disproportionate, relative to a hospital's core business. Walgreens leverages its expertise in
pharmacy operations to provide outpatient pharmacy services that help health systems address
business challenges ranging from medication adherence to hospital readmissions to cost
containment. With 100-plus hospital pharmacy locations across the country, we've clearly
demonstrated our effectiveness as outpatient operators.
