Employer Groups

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Midwest retailer Meijer has announced a new partnership with 4D Pharmacy Management Systems, Inc. that will greatly expand the benefits available to 4D's employer groups through Meijer's "Be Well" program. The announcement was made today by Mark Murray, President of the Grand Rapids, Mich.-based supercenter chain.

"This is truly a game changer in the prescription benefit world," said Mark Murray, president of Meijer. "Our new partnership with 4D will bring Meijer's drugstore services to new heights by offering numerous health-focused benefits to 4D customers."

Meijer's Be Well program was developed in partnership with 4D. Through this new program, employer groups will have access to 4D's nationwide network of over 60,000 pharmacies and receive major discounts at Meijer on products that promote a healthy lifestyle. The Be Well program powered by 4D will begin managing pharmacy benefits on January 1, 2009.

In addition to programs already offered at Meijer pharmacies, such as free antibiotic and pre-natal vitamin prescriptions, Be Well program members will receive everyday discounts on goods such as Meijer Vitamins, Meijer organic food products, and other healthy choices inside Meijer stores. Additionally, Be Well members will receive "discounts of the week" that promote items such as healthy food products and cold medication.

The Be Well program also includes a variety of special services, including health screenings, immunizations, free Medicare reports, patient counseling, and information services. Employer groups will also be offered services from Meijer including flu shot clinics, smoking cessation classes, weight loss seminars conducted by Meijer dieticians and pharmacists, disease state management clinics tests like cholesterol, liver function, and diabetes scree
