These products are augmented by a specialized, focused selection of vitamins, nutritional supplements and home medical supplies.
The Company has built a specialty distribution platform to allow customers to access products and services through a variety of channels. Familymeds offers mail order, Internet and catalog opportunities to its various customers. This platform provides healthcare solution for insurers (including United Healthcare) and pharmacy benefits managers (including Medco Health).
