CVS Health has announced the sale of a division that specializes in assisting physicians and healthcare systems with value-based Medicare contracts to Nashville-based Wellvana. This strategic move reflects CVS's ongoing efforts to streamline its operations and focus on core business areas.
The unit being sold has played a crucial role in helping healthcare providers navigate the complexities of Medicare contracts, which are increasingly shifting towards value-based care models.
