Retail Clinics

in
MinuteClinic, the nation’s leading chain of retail-
based health clinics, operated 462 locations in
25 states at year-end. Nearly all are located
right inside our stores, making it “CVS easy”
to seek treatment for common illnesses
or to receive routine vaccinations.
Open seven days a week, MinuteClinic
requires no appointment. Its clinicians
— primarily nurse practitioners — have
handled more than 1.5 million patient
visits to date and over 500,000
in the nal four months of
2007 alone. With our broader
health care focus, many more
MinuteClinics are on the way
in 2008 with an expanded
list of services.
CVS Caremark leads the industry with approximately
$8 billion in specialty pharmacy sales through our
20 specialty mail order pharmacies, our 56 specialty
pharmacy stores, and CVS/pharmacy locations.
Specialty costs are rising rapidly for payors, and
we’re uniquely positioned to help our PBM clients
control spending with our advanced utilization
management guidelines, clinical expertise, and
Accordant® health management programs.
