Description: CVS Caremark Corporation is a result of a 2007 merger of the CVS and Caremark companies. CVS started as a retail health and beauty store in 1963, adding retail pharmacies in 1967. The company is headquartered in Rhode Island. CVS Caremark provides prescription and related health care services throughout the U.S. The company sells its products and services through 6,900 CVS/pharmacy and Longs Drug retail stores, the pharmacy benefit management, mail order and specialty pharmacy division, Caremark Pharmacy Services, the retail-based health clinic subsidiary, MinuteClinic and the online pharmacy, CVS.com. Its operating segments are pharmacy services and retail pharmacy. The company's major brand is its Proactive Pharmacy Care, which engages plan participants in behaviors that can help lower costs, improve health, and save lives. On October 20, 2008, CVS Caremark acquired Longs Drug Stores Corporation, which includes 529 retail drug stores and RxAmerica LLC ("RxAmerica"), which provides pharmacy benefit management services, and certain other related assets.
