More about the Apple Drugs Diabetes Center
Apple Drugs Diabetes Center was recently relaunched as Core Clinical Care. This extension of Apple Discount Drugs is 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.
