When FedEx permanently retired its SameDay City delivery service on March 31, 2023, hospitals, labs, clinics, and pharmacies across the United States were left in the lurch.
The importance of logistical certainty in healthcare cannot be overemphasized. In healthcare, courier service disruptions can trigger severe consequences as the contents inside the package have a direct bearing on a patient’s well-being.
If your medical facility is among those affected by this decision, we would like to extend our hand to you and offer you a disruption-free, safe, and on-time alternative to take care of your same-day delivery needs and beyond.

FedUp with FedEx: Why MCI is Your Healthcare Logistics Partner
The FedEx withdrawal of their SameDay City Service to “prioritize other growth opportunities” is one of many risks of working with common carriers in healthcare logistics.
The company responsible for the speedy delivery of critical medicines, patient samples, and therapies should be focused on customer care: not creating a potential threat to your healthcare supply chain.
With MCI, you never have to worry about such disruptions because we have always been a medical-only delivery company. We treat every package as life-saving cargo. We understand how important it is to deliver it timely and with the utmost care.
