Company plans to create up to 850 jobs in Jeffersonville

JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind. (AP) - Indiana officials say health care solutions provider PharmaCord will build an operations and call center in southern Indiana, creating up to 850 new jobs by the end of 2023.

The Indiana Economic Development Corp. says the Louisville, Kentucky-based company will invest more than $52 million to launch its Indiana operations at the River Ridge Commerce Center in Jeffersonville.

The IEDC says PharmaCord, which currently has about 150 employees serving pharmaceutical companies, plans to begin hiring immediately for customer service representatives, benefit specialists, case managers and specialty nurses.

Pending approval from its board of directors, the IEDC will offer PharmaCord up to $9 million in conditional tax credits based on the company's planned job creation and capital investment. It says the River Ridge Development Authority will consider other incentives.
