CVS/Aetna MA

Aetna’s 3.9 million members benefit from CVS Health’s $69B vertical integration, creating an unmatched ecosystem of pharmacy, clinic, and insurance services. Its SilverScript PDP is the dominant standalone drug plan in the US, covering over 4.6 million beneficiaries. CVS MinuteClinics offer accessible primary care touchpoints that reduce emergency visits by 20% for enrolled members, outperforming #4 Elevance’s less extensive clinic network. This synergy drives cost savings and convenience for plan holders.
