J.D. Power released the results from its December 2018 pulsesurvey, which delves into consumer perception of the CVS-Aetna merger and theprospect of receiving care in a CVS retail pharmacy setting.

It generated 1,000 responses. More than half (53 percent)had visited a CVS store within the previous 12 months and 96 percent said a CVSstore was located less than 30 minutes from their home.

Some of the findings:

  • 45 percent would consider receiving primary careat a CVS clinic.
  • Younger patients and privately insured patients arethe most receptive to the CVS-Aetna model.
  • Cost and convenience are growing in importance.
  • Consumers don’t expect the CVS-Aetna model to affecthealthcare outcomes.
  • Views diverge on coordinated care, withrespondents about evenly split on whether a CVS healthcare option would providea more coordinated approach than what they are currently receiving.
  • About half of respondents are open to using aCVS-based clinic for healthcare, about half can be persuaded by lower costs orgreater convenience, and about half believe CVS can improve in the coordinationof their care.
