What is GreaterHealth Pharmacy & Wellness?
GreaterHealth Pharmacy & Wellness (GreaterHealth) is an innovative pharmacy model that combines culturally responsive pharmacy services with medically tailored dietary meals to provide a comprehensive path to improved healthcare outcomes for underserved communities. Patients experiencing hypertension, kidney disease, high cholesterol, or diabetes are paired with a pharmacist and dietician, and receive free home medication and meal delivery services. This innovative approach to the last touchpoint in the healthcare journey serves to transform the lives of those furthest away from opportunity. This solution has the potential to impact 200,000 Missouri residents and 100M+ people across the U.S.
