Did Walgreens get special treatment from pharmacy board?

That’s the charge being made by a government watchdog group and a labor federation, which alleges that the Indiana Board of Pharmacy in 2011 approved Walgreens’ new pharmacy design with the help of the former board president who is employed by the drug chain.

When Walgreens received the green light from the Indiana pharmacy board for its new pharmacy design, William Cover was president of the state pharmacy board and Walgreens’ corporate manager of pharmacy affairs.
