  • Continues the Journey To
    THE JOURNEY TO global CONTINUES Walgreens, Alliance Boots and our joint venture have accomplished a lot in one year – another step in establishing the world’s first global health and well-being enterprise. By James Warda ast year at this time, the Walgreen World cover story and our company’s biggest news was that we had entered into a groundbreak- ing agreement with the European-based Lcompany Alliance Boots. One year later, we sat down with three of the leaders closely involved in making this a successful partnership: from Walgreens, Alliance Boots and the joint venture Walgreens Boots Alliance Development GmbH*. Walgreen World: What convinced you about the partnership with Walgreens? John Donovan, co-president of Walgreens Boots Alliance Development GmbH (previously with Alliance Boots): Alliance Boots already set a successful precedent at a European level a few years ago. Now we have the opportunity to add greater dimension, geo- graphical reach and extra scale to this model. What we can ultimately offer our customers, pharmacists, patients and manufacturers can only be dramatically increased by our strategic partnership with Walgreens. WW: What have Walgreens and Alliance Boots been doing together this past year? Bob Zimmerman, Walgreens senior vice president and global chief administration officer:To help us organize the efforts involved in delivering synergies, or making the most of cost savings, new ideas and improved processes, we’ve developed six teams in the last year.

  • Smart90 Walgreens Document
    Questions & Answers about your new three-month supply network 1. What is a Walgreens three-month supply network? It’s a feature of your prescription plan managed by Express Scripts. With it, you have two ways to get up to a three-month supply of your long-term medications (those drugs you take regularly for ongoing conditions). You can conveniently fill those prescriptions either through home delivery from the Express Scripts PharmacySM or from any Walgreens or Duane ReadeTM pharmacy.1 2. How many Walgreens pharmacies are available to me? There are more than 9,800 Walgreens pharmacies. To locate one, visit express-scripts.com and click “Prescriptions,” then “Find a Pharmacy”; participating Walgreens pharmacies will be noted in your search results. 3. What happens if I keep filling my long-term medication like I’m doing now? Per your plan, if you keep filling a one-month supply instead of a three-month supply, or if you’re using a non-Walgreens pharmacy to fill your long-term medication, you'll pay either a higher cost or the full cost for your medication. 4. What does “full cost” mean? “Full cost” is the actual cost of your medication. For example, the actual cost of the medication might be $75, but if you have a copayment or coinsurance, your payment might only be $20. “Full cost” means that your payment would be the entire $75. 5. What is the advantage of getting up to a three-month supply vs. a one-month supply? By getting up to a three-month supply, you’ll make fewer trips to the pharmacy, and you’ll only need to make one payment every three months.
