Many Employers Health team members have previous experience working for pharmacy benefit firms. Our team helps plan sponsors find strategies that maximize savings and care. As many employers work to slow their health care costs, the unique relationship between Employers Health and CVS Caremark is an added benefit to help control the rising cost of health care spend.

Negotiated savings are just the beginning. As a pharmacy innovation company with an unmatched breadth of capabilities, CVS Caremark continually strives to improve health and lower costs. CVS Caremark is reinventing pharmacy to provide caring expert guidance, new cost-effective solutions, and even more convenient access to care.

Our solutions are designed to make the best use of your pharmacy investment. We’ve organized them in two categories: those that manage bad trend and those that promote good trend.

Our Bad Trend solutions target and control unnecessary pharmacy spend through the use of generics, low-cost channels and utilization management tools.

Promoting Good Trend means helping patients receive the most cost-effective appropriate therapy and helping them stay adherent. Our good trend solutions are focused on helping to control medical costs by improving medication adherence and reducing gaps in care.
