"Consumers want easier ways to manage their health, and this partnership will help them do so," Cargill continued. "What's more, health and wellness advertisers are increasingly attracted by the potential of the pharmacy as a healthcare communications venue. By combining CBS Outernet and Lifeclinic's media platforms, we can offer advertisers the reach they seek, as well as the ability to engage the consumer in a rich, interactive dialogue."

"This is a meaningful step toward addressing the critical healthcare needs of this country," said Philander Claxton, President of Lifeclinic. "Our blood pressure monitors are provided by pharmacies as an important service to their customers. We believe the addition of our new health stations will become a fundamental part of the healthcare delivery system, helping people to anticipate disease threats, to learn about the risks they face and to participate in disease management programs."

"We already share common retail chains, as well as common goals, so working together makes good sense," said Lon von Hurwitz, Executive Vice President of Lifeclinic. "Consumers will be better equipped in their search for wellness, while retailers will benefit from increased medication therapy compliance, sales growth throughout the store, and customer loyalty. The model may be extended to all Lifeclinic locations, which include thousands of Fortune 500 company worksites and medical facilities, such as the Mayo Clinic and the National Institutes of Health."
