We do this, in part, through our traditional
strengths in generic substitution, mail
service, network management, clinical
programs, and specialty guideline manage-
ment. As we integrate our PBM offerings
with CVS/pharmacy’s unmatched retail
presence, we’re also improving adherence
and taking our differentiated offerings
to the next level. The vast majority of
patients prefer to get their information
through face-to-face interaction at
the pharmacy. Those that do can draw
upon the expertise of our 25,000 in-store
pharmacists, nurse practitioners,
and physician assistants. The strength
of our combination doesn’t end there.
Regardless of how CVS Caremark plan
participants interact with us – through
mail order, in our stores, over the phone,
or on the web – our back-end Consumer
Engagement Engine will provide a single,
unifi ed view of their therapy history. As
a result, identifying and communicating
participant-specifi c cost reduction and
health improvement opportunities will
be easier than ever.
As one of the nation’s largest PBMs, CVS Caremark plays a critical
role in the way health care is delivered today.
