Description

In addition to cough drops, toilet paper, and pantyhose, your future Walgreens shopping list could include a checkup with a doctor. The Deerfield-based drugstore chain has invested billions of dollars over the past few years to add primary care clinics to some of its stores, with a goal of reaching 1,000 by 2027. Crain’s reporter Katherine Davis has been covering Walgreens’ health care transformation, and she tells host Jacoby Cochran about some of the hurdles the company faces.
