Apple Discount Drugs is pleased to announce the expansion of its clinical program offerings with the launch of Core Clinical Care.” Core Clinical Care is a clinic within Apple’s Fruitland location that provides specialized offerings in diabetes education and self-management.
“We are very excited to roll out this new offering to the public,” said Jeff Sherr, president, Apple Discount Drugs. “We know it will benefit both the Medicare population and the private insurance holders. Education is what it’s all about. If we can teach our community how to manage their diabetes sooner than later then we can prevent other health related conditions that are ignited by the disease. Our goal is to keep people healthy and living the quality of life they deserve.”
Apple’s Core Clinical Care unit will be capable of conducting and processing lab tests (as the first pharmacy in Maryland to hold a laboratory waiver) in addition to other diabetes services such as one-on-one and group counseling, diabetes products training and nutrition and life style education. The benefit that makes Core Clinical Care stand out among other diabetes education programs is that not only will Medicare patients be covered – private insurance holders will be covered too.
Apple is also in the process of interviewing for a Nurse Practitioner position for the Core Clinical Care unit. This individual, once hired will be responsible for reviewing patient charts and progress and intervening if necessary in the plan of care.
