MinuteClinic is rolling out comprehensive primary care

Dr. Creagh Milford, president, retail health, discusses how MinuteClinic is expanding its primary care capabilities to meet consumers’ needs and increase their access to care.• CVS Health is expanding the primary care capabilities at MinuteClinic by working with payors and health systems to offer MinuteClinic as an in-network primary care provider.• Currently, MinuteClinic offers in-network primary care services to select Aetna members in Houston, San Antonio and the greater Atlanta area with plans to include more markets and payors in the future.• MinuteClinic has been adding services related to primary care for the last two decades, including wellness visits, chronic care management and health screenings, and it is now expanding into longitudinal primary care, which is a patient-centered model of care that focuses on an ongoing relationship between the MinuteClinic care provider and the patient.• To deliver primary care, we are building on these capabilities, and in certain markets, MinuteClinic nurse practitioners have been credentialed as primary care providers. This gives patients accessible, end-to-end and preventive care where and when they need it.Service availability may vary by location.
