Option Care

Option Care offers franchises for the establishment of outpatient health care businesses which operate under the service mark of OPTION CARE. Their franchises specialize in what is sometimes referred to as home infusion therapy, but the services encompass many aspects of health care in home and other outpatient settings. Option Care Inc. provides specialty pharmacy services and infusion (IV) therapy to people in their homes through contracts with managed care organizations, hospitals, physicians, and other healthcare providers. In the early 2000s, the firm operated a network of 130 pharmacies--27 of which were company-owned and 103 of which were franchises--and two specialty distribution centers. While Option Care is a national operation, most of the company's locations are situated in the eastern half of the United States.
