Choice Pharmacy

Headquartered in Lanham, Maryland, a Washington, DC suburb, Direct Pharmacy Service, Inc was founded in 1994. Its founders recognized the opportunity in the burgeoning mail order pharmacy industry. Using their expertise and years of experience in Federal government lobbying and pharmacy, they established relationships within Federal government departments that wished to begin providing mail order pharmacy service to their employees. Today, those relationships with public entities are intact and have grown to include private employers, labor unions, insurance carriers and managed care organizations. With the rising costs of healthcare, the desire to lower the cost of prescription drugs has become a top priority for public and private employers. Based on years of industry experience, our company is uniquely qualified to help companies lower drug spending and provide excellent service to their employees, while also providing the personalized client service that our small business is known for and our clients deserve. Acquiring and establishing a mail order pharmacy fulfillment facility and servicing our clients and their members with an experienced team of industry professionals has been the key to our success in the mail order industry.
