We offer a wide array
of services, and
we’re developing
a number of new
services to include:
These relationships include development of joint clinical programs and electronic medical records integration.
Most importantly, they lay the groundwork for MinuteClinic’s participation in accountable care organizations,
patient-centered medical homes, and other integrated networks of care whose prevalence is growing rapidly.
MinuteClinic is 40 to 80 percent less expensive than alternate sites of care offering the same quality services.
In fact, using our own employee population as a pilot, we learned that employees that used MinuteClinic have
significantly lower health care costs than matched nonusers. Our PBM clients have also begun leveraging
MinuteClinic’s cost advantage to address the health care needs of their members more efficiently. For example,
some clients have substantially reduced or eliminated co-pays to encourage new patients to use MinuteClinic
and lower overall health care costs. MinuteClinic can also provide health condition monitoring for several chronic
conditions for our PBM patients. The value of these integrated offerings will grow as new locations open. By
2017, we expect two-thirds of all of our PBM members to live within 10 miles of a MinuteClinic location.
