Pharmacy Expands Same-Day Delivery to 20 More U.S. Cities
By 2025, nearly half of U.S. residents will have access to rapid prescription delivery as Amazon addresses pharmacy deserts.
- Amazon will integrate new pharmacies into its Same-Day Delivery sites, enhancing its logistics network for faster medication delivery.
- The expansion aims to solve accessibility issues in 'pharmacy deserts,' where residents are often far from the nearest pharmacy.
- Customers in cities like Boston, Dallas, and Philadelphia will be able to order medications by 4 p.m. and receive them by 10 p.m.
- Amazon's digital-first approach includes 24/7 pharmacist access and cost-saving programs like RxPass for Prime members.
- This initiative is part of Amazon's broader strategy to innovate healthcare delivery and improve patient engagement.
