CVS Pharmacy to Offer "Talking" Prescription Labels for Individuals with Vision Impairments

Written on . Posted in GCDD Blog

CVS/pharmacy announced in March 2014 that prescriptions ordered online through cvs.com will now have ScripTalk talking prescription labels. The ScripTalk labels
provide a safe and convenient way to access information on prescription labels for individuals who cannot read or see standard print, and the labels are free to CVS.com pharmacy customers who are blind or visually impaired. Customers can obtain a free ScripTalk reader from Envision America that will enable them to listen to the information on the prescription label.

The benefit is a result of collaboration between CVS/pharmacy, the American Foundation for the Blind, American Council of the Blind and California Council of
the Blind.
