Uber announced on Wednesday its new partnership with prescription delivery company ScriptDrop to help participating pharmacies and grocery store chains deliver prescribed medicine to consumer’s doorstep, dissolving problems such as lack of transportation, long work hours and health concerns.
“Being able to combine ScriptDrop’s integrated interface with Uber’s technology means that pharmacies of all sizes will be better equipped to improve prescription adherence and serve the most vulnerable of their communities,” said the CEO of ScriptDrop, Amanda Epp.
This would be Uber’s second partnership with a prescription delivery company, as in August of last year, it announced a collaboration with NimbleRx that covered 5 cities. ScriptDrop will be operating in 37 states and is expected to expand soon.
