Topic: Walgreens giving free care to jobless and uninsured | |
---|---|
NEW YORK – Drugstore operator Walgreens will offer free clinic visits to the unemployed and uninsured for the rest of the year, providing tests and routine treatment for minor ailments through its walk-in clinics — though patients will still pay for precriptions.
Walgreens said patients who lose their job and health insurance after March 31 will be able to get free treatment at its in-store Take Care clinics for respiratory problems, allergies, infections and skin conditions, among other ailments. Typically those treatments cost $59 or more for patients with no insurance. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/walgreen_clinics;_ylt=AhbIzhdrY4BtjyN2sPXiw1ADW7oF |
