Proactive Pharmacy Care: Overview

As health care costs consume more and more of the nation’s economy, it’s become ever more urgent that we find better ways to manage people’s health. Proactive Pharmacy Care can help.

Proactive Pharmacy Care is a new approach to pharmacy benefit management developed to help keep people healthy, treat illnesses cost-effectively and lower health risks. It works because CVS Caremark engages people and providers earlier and more often throughout the health care process.
