CVS has failed. Good riddance.
Nope. CVS owns AETNA and AETNA has a policy of preferred purchases from CVS vs other pharmacies. Combined, they are too big to fail. There problem here locally is they have 5 outlets in a town that really needs only two.
CVS has been pushing on line ordering and delivery of prescriptions for years. The VA has done that for me for years also. It is more convenient for them with less overhead.
CVS has been very good to us in general, but I think that is due to the local hires not necessarily the chain's policies.
