Non-adherence to prescribed medications is one of the most costly problems in healthcare globally — estimated to cause 125,000 deaths and $300 billion in avoidable healthcare costs annually in the US alone. In Africa, the figures are even more stark.
Radius Health's pharmacy delivery service, launched in 2024, enables patients to receive their prescriptions within 24–48 hours of a consultation. For chronic disease patients — our fastest growing segment — this means consistent medication without the need for repeated pharmacy visits.
Early results are promising: a 52% improvement in 30-day refill rates among hypertensive patients using our delivery service compared to those picking up medications in person.
