Free Healthcare for newly UNEMPLOYED

The Take Care Recovery Plan provides care you can count on at Walgreens. *This offer applies to any Take Care Clinic patient that loses his or her job on or after March 31 and has no health insurance. Any other individual that visits a Take Care Clinic as a patient after March 31, and then loses his or her job and is uninsured, may qualify for the offer for the remainder of 2009.

Sacrificing quality healthcare for you and your family should never be an option. As a healthcare provider, we see the effects of a struggling economy on the patients and neighborhoods we serve.

That's why we've created the Take Care Recovery Plan to help our current and future patients*. It provides access to free healthcare visits for our patients, and their families, who have lost their jobs and are uninsured.

We hope just knowing you have a place to turn in tough times will help

relieve some of the strain of a sudden loss of income. You can't put a price on peace of mind. The Take Care Recovery Plan promises you won't have to.
