Target has opened the first CVS Pharmacy in the Charlotte, North Carolina, market—marking the first of many conversions in existing Targets and new locations.
CVS Health plans to convert 1,672 Target pharmacies to CVS Pharmacy locations around the country on a rolling basis over the next six to eight months. Over time, all of the Target pharmacies will convert to a full CVS Pharmacy that offers the complete suite of services available at traditional CVS Pharmacy locations.
Maintenance Choice, a program that lets CVS Caremark plan members choose to fill 90-day supplies of medications for chronic conditions either through mail service or at any CVS Pharmacy location, is now available in all pharmacies in Target. Specialty Connect, a program that gives patients the option to bring their specialty prescriptions to any CVS Pharmacy, will be available to patients as Target pharmacies convert to CVS Pharmacy. Pharmacy Advisor, a program in which CVS Caremark plan members diagnosed with chronic conditions receive face-to-face counseling when they choose to fill prescriptions at CVS Pharmacy or by phone when they choose mail service pharmacy, will be available at all CVS Pharmacy locations in Target by the end of 2016.
In addition, a CVS Pharmacy will be included in all new Target stores that offer pharmacy services, and Target clinic locations will be rebranded as CVS MinuteClinic over the next six to eight months.
In December 2015, CVS Health acquired all Target pharmacies and retail clinics across 47 states.
