LabCorp at Walgreens expands into Florida
On the heels of revealing a new pilot program to lower SKU counts per store, Walgreens and LabCorp have announced the expansion of the LabCorp at Walgreens into Florida. Ten new patient service centers will open within the Deerfield, Ill.-based retailer’s stores between April and May, with four locations serving the Gainesville market and two each in the Palm Beach, Pasco and Orlando areas.
These new locations join the previously announced Denver and North Carolina sites, which opened in 2017 and offers patients a secure, comfortable environment for specimen collection.
“We’ve had an outstanding experience with the six LabCorp at Walgreens locations that opened last year,” David P. King, LabCorp’s chairman and CEO, said. “Patients and physicians have responded enthusiastically to having access to lab testing in a high-quality health care setting. The success of those initial sites and the overwhelmingly positive market response caused us to make the decision to expand this initiative to Florida. The LabCorp at Walgreens partnership is a key pillar of our commitment to engage directly with consumers, supporting our mission to improve health and improve lives.”
The new Florida locations for LabCorp a Walgreens will be:
Gainesville area:
Pasco County area:
Palm Beach County area:
Orlando area:
“Our initial pilot locations with LabCorp have been well-received and demonstrate that customers appreciate a greater level of access to important health care services,” Nimesh Jhaveri, vice president of healthcare service at Walgreens, said. “The LabCorp at Walgreens centers are a strong complement to our core pharmacy services and expertise, and another way in which we’re working with partners to bring health care closer to our patients in the community.”
