The affiliation will enhance access to high quality, affordable health care services at MinuteClinic walk-in medical clinics opening inside select CVS/pharmacy stores in Rhode Island beginning later this week. The new Rhode Island clinics, opening this fall and in 2015, will be located in Cranston, East Greenwich, North Smithfield, Providence, Wakefield, Westerly and Woonsocket. The collaboration encourages interaction between Lifespan and MinuteClinic providers to improve coordination and access to care for patients seen at MinuteClinic locations. Toward that end, both organizations will integrate their electronic medical records to further promote exchange of clinical information, with patients’ permission. For those patients who do not have regular access to primary care, MinuteClinic provides assistance in finding a primary care physician. MinuteClinic locations in Rhode Island will be open seven days a week, offering weekday evening hours with no appointment necessary and most health insurance accepted. The clinics will be staffed by nurse practitioners and physician assistants who provide treatment for common family illnesses and administer wellness and prevention services, including health-condition monitoring for patients with chronic diseases.

  • The Power Of
    A DSN SPECIAL REPORT n 2012, DSN presented an in-depth report on CVS Caremark’s integrated pharmacy business model — part big retail pharmacy chain, part big PBM, part big retail clinic operator — and the innova- tive products and solutions that were coming out of the organization, particularly where the three parts of Ithe business came together, its “integration sweet spots,” as company executives referred to them. It was clear at the time that the company had emerged as a “category of one,” which was the cover theme of that special issue. Now, a year later, as the company completes its 50th year in business and the country awaits a period of change in health care unlike anything seen in at least that time, CVS Caremark executives are quite confident that its unique hybrid structure and its ability to leverage the three core parts of its business — either individually or together, in varying combinations to serve a multitude of needs — aligns more effectively with the long-term trends in health care and puts the company in a unique position at a singular moment in history. In an exclusive interview with DSN, CVS Caremark president and CEO Larry Merlo talked about what that means, why it’s important to both public and private pay- ers of all sizes, health plans, patients and providers, as well as how the company is using behavioral economics and predictive analytics to more effectively engage clients and customers and how they are building new clinical capabilities to address the new models of care, new cus- tomers and new quality standards that will guide the new payment models that will emerge through health reform.
