UnitedHealth Group (UNH) and Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc. (WBA)
said they will open 14 UnitedHealthcare Medicare services centers
within Walgreens stores in five metropolitan areas as part of a
multiyear agreement.
The UnitedHealthcare Medicare services centers will open in
January 2020 at Walgreens stores in the Las Vegas, Phoenix,
Cleveland, Denver and Memphis markets.
With these centers, Walgreens customers can learn more about
Medicare, meet with service advocates to discuss their
UnitedHealthcare plan benefits and enroll in plans.
UnitedHealthcare Medicare Advantage members can also make an
appointment for an in-store annual wellness visit at the Medicare
services center in Walgreens through UnitedHealthcare's HouseCalls
program.
The companies said they are also collaborating on the AARP
Medicare Advantage Walgreens plans from UnitedHealthcare. The new
AARP Medicare Advantage Walgreens plans with Medicare Part D
prescription drug coverage will deliver lower prescription drug
costs and access to medications through Walgreens, the companies
said.
