Walgreens Health Initiatives
 WALGREENS HEALTH INITIATIVES (WHI), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Walgreen Company is proud to serve as a preferred partner PBM for the NBCH. WHI is a full service pharmacy benefits management company offering a range of services that include member access to a broad Retail Pharmacy Network (54,000 pharmacies nationwide — including Walgreens, Wal-Mart, Kmart, Rite Aid, CVS, and Eckerd as well as many well-respected independent pharmacies), Mail Services option, Clinical Programs, Home Health Centers, Care Management, and Health Initiatives. Operating with the same commitment to service and dependability that has made its 100 year old parent company one of the "world's most admired companies" by Fortune Magazine, WHI has been rated first in overall client satisfaction for the second year in a row by PBMI.
Discounts, rebates, and administrative fees vary so widely between PBM products that it is often difficult to tell if you have a good product or not. The NBCH preferred WHI product embraces the innovative concept of transparency presenting a clear, cost effective product. With WHI, normally lucrative profit streams are dramatically reduced (or returned) in order to maximize client savings as well as minimize contract confusion. Under these terms, WHI focuses on earning income through managing the benefit. By putting purchasing power into the hands of clients through its deep discounts, transparent rebate structure and bundled flexible clinical programs, WHI has established itself as a true innovator in the market, influencing the way PBMs do business at the local level.
