Walgreens is offering free clinic visits and treatments for a variety of health issues for their clinic patients who lose their job and are uninsured.
"Drugstore operator Walgreens will offer free clinic visits to the unemployed and uninsured for the rest of the year, providing tests and routine treatment for minor ailments through its walk-in clinics — though patients will still pay for precriptions.
"Walgreens said patients who lose their job and health insurance after March 31 will be able to get free treatment at its in-store Take Care clinics for respiratory problems, allergies, infections and skin conditions, among other ailments. Typically those treatments cost $59 or more for patients with no insurance." -Associated Press
Walgreens offers health services through their Take Care clinics in select stores. Walgreen's is calling their program the "Take Care Recovery Plan", which can be found here.
These free services will be offered Monday-Friday, between 11am and 3pm. Immediate family members will be eligible for free services, but as a note, these services do not include check-ups and prescription medication will still cost money.
This is a generous service offered by Walgreens. Below are the nearest locations with Take Care Clinics in the Sarasota area, unfortunately, the closest one is in St. Petersburg.
