Take Care coupons offered for popular flu season products

CONSHOCKEN, Pa. Amid the current economic turmoil, Take Care Health Systems is promoting its quality and cost-effective healthcare service this flu season through a Winter Promotional Program that runs through the end of March.

The program, which kicked off in January, is taking place at all 327 Take Care Clinics nationwide, the company announced on Tuesday. It coincides with the height of the cold, cough and flu season. Under the program, first-time visitors are eligible to receive a $50 coupon book redeemable for select Walgreens merchandise including cold medicine, facial tissue and hand sanitizer. 

"Consumers who seek care are looking more closely for ways to reduce the overall costs of treatment," stated Sandy Ryan, chief nurse practitioner officer for Take Care Health Systems. "Many of those cost-conscious consumers are sacrificing quality or a satisfying patient experience." 

Citing a survey by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, Take Care stated that 22% of consumers said that the ailing economy was causing them to see the doctor less. In an effort to save money, about 11% said they?ve scaled back on prescription drugs or reduced the dosage of those drugs to make them last longer. 

"With an increasing number of families and individuals in America forced to make tough choices when it comes to spending, health care should not be something that suffers," stated Peter Miller, president and CEO of Take Care Health Systems. "Now more than ever, the care offered at Take Care Clinics is an excellent option for patients as they look to save on cost, without having to compromise the quality of their health or the care they receive."
