Today, Cardinal Health and Zipline announced that the two companies began long-range drone deliveries in North Carolina. This launch follows a successful pilot phase as well as Part 135 certification awarded by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to Zipline.
Through this collaboration, Cardinal Health is delivering certain pharmaceutical products and medical supplies to Cannon Pharmacy Main, an independent pharmacy chain that services North Carolina locations to help mitigate the risk of inventory stock-outs and reduce barriers for patients accessing the necessary products to fit their needs.
“At Cardinal Health, we’re committed to working diligently to help ensure our health care provider customers have access to the right medication at the right time for their patients, and an effective distribution strategy is required to make this happen,” said Josh Dolan, senior vice president, pharmaceutical operations at Cardinal Health. “Through our work with Zipline, we are able to expand our world-class distribution services with innovative delivery methods that will help our customers meet their patient’s evolving needs — now and in the future.”
