LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- CVS Pharmacy is partnering with UPS to test a new way of delivering medications to patients.
The companies recently received approval from the Federal Aviation Administration to use drones as a delivery method. The drones will be automated and programmed to fly pre-planned routes with a 5- to 10-minute delivery time. A human pilot will supervise the deliveries and take over controls if necessary.
CVS and UPS have not announced where the test deliveries will take place.
