CVS launches same-day prescription delivery nationwide

CVS Pharmacy just announced it’s rolling out same-day delivery for prescription drugs and other products. The company piloted the program in New York in 2017 and expanded it to a handful of other cities last year, but will now offer the service in 6,000 stores across 36 states and Washington, D.C. The new service — which will be provided by delivery company Shipt at a fee of $7.99 — will be offered in addition to a 1-2 day delivery program that the company already has in place in all 10,000 of its stores. Along with eligible prescriptions, customers can also place delivery orders for over-the-counter drugs and home products, including allergy medications and feminine care products.
