As what I have read online, Walgreens and Express Scripts are having some issues. Express Scripts Inc recently announced that Walgreens will no longer be in its network. This includes all Walgreens pharmacies nationwide and Duane Reade pharmacies in the New York City area, which caused to upset thousands of customers. Although I have not personally been affected, I do have family members that have had difficulties trying to figure out when, where and how to get their prescriptions.

For one thing, patients covered by an Express Scripts plan now find themselves not only having to change their pharmacists, but many are having to drive farther to get prescriptions filled at pharmacies with less convenient hours for their hectic schedules. My brother now has to drive to a pharmacy over 45 minutes away to get his prescription filled, whereas before, he could go to his Walgreens just a short drive away from his house. This is a mighty big inconvenience don’t you think?

Walgreens wants to help and they are offering a special discount on annual membership for its Prescription Savings Club at Walgreens. This offer is available to everyone through January 31st.
