CVS Health reports Q1 Retail/LTC revenues up 3.3%

Retail/LTC segment revenues increased 3.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by increased prescription volume and brand name drug price inflation, partially offset by continued reimbursement pressure and the impact of generic drug introductions. Front store revenues represent approximately 22.7% of total Retail/LTC segment revenues. Front store revenues increased in the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the prior year primarily driven by increases in health product sales. Total prescription volume grew 5.5%, on a 30-day equivalent basis, for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the prior year. The growth was driven mainly by the continued adoption of patient care programs, collaborations with PBMs and the company’s preferred status in a number of Medicare Part D networks.
