Workplace & Retail Clinic Bulletin

Workplace & Retail Clinic Bulletin September 2016

"For the provider, if you can develop a relationship with a retail clinic, or a group like CVS or Target -- and if you can ensure interoperability between the IT system at the clinic and the IT system at the provider's office -- you don't lose the patient. And now, as a provider, you can take on value-based payment and deploy primary care in the community as long as you've got the technology infrastructure in place."
-Jane Sarasohn-Kahn, health economist/advisor, THINK-Health

"Retail clinic locations have expanded from 1,605 to 2,215 in the United States between 2011 and 2016, mostly the result of expansion by major drugstore chains."
