Health & Pharma

Delivery precision matters more in health.

Health, wellness, and pharma shippers need a carrier with tight chain-of-custody, reliable on-time performance, and photo-documented proof of delivery. LMS Core delivers all three — with all-in FinalFare pricing and no surprise costs.

The last-mile problem

Where Health & Pharma shippers get stuck.

Chain-of-custody documentation gaps

Health product and OTC pharma shippers need to demonstrate delivery. Carriers with sparse scan events or no photo documentation leave shippers exposed to disputes and regulatory questions.

Residential DAS and EDAS surcharges on patient home delivery

Home health and direct-to-patient delivery is inherently residential — and often to rural or extended rural addresses. DAS and EDAS surcharges at the major carriers can add $7–$14+ per package on top of already elevated rates.

Inconsistent transit times affecting patient compliance

When a wellness subscription or OTC product arrives late, patient adherence and satisfaction metrics suffer. On-time consistency is a clinical-adjacent requirement, not just a customer-service preference.
