A Walgreens logo in front of a stock market prices board." width="1200" height="751"><p>While financial and retail analysts continue to evaluate the implications of Walgreens Boots Alliance鈥檚 <a href="https://investor.walgreensbootsalliance.com/news-releases/news-release-details/walgreens-boots-alliance-enters-definitive-agreement-be-acquired" target="_blank" title="Walgreens Boots Alliance: Walgreens Boots Alliance Enters into Definitive Agreement to Be Acquired by Sycamore Partners">recent agreement</a> to be taken private by Sycamore Partners, many important questions loom.</p><ul><li>What will become of the retail pharmacy鈥檚 health care assets and its apparently rapidly dwindling aspirations as an outlet for primary care?</li><li>How will Walgreens鈥� huge national footprint change once the deal valued at nearly $24 billion is expected to close?</li><li>Can Sycamore Partners successfully reposition Walgreens for financial recovery, and what role does the private equity firm foresee as to the retailer鈥檚 future in health care?</li><li>Does Sycamore Partners have the capital needed to transform Walgreens into a serious and sustainable competitor in the pharmacy and health care services space against companies like CVS Health, Amazon and others?</li></ul><h2>4 Changes the Walgreens Sale Signals</h2><h3><span>1</span> <span>|</span> This may be the end of Walgreens鈥� direct role in primary care.</h3><p>Just five years after its first $1 billion investment in VillageMD (another $5.2 billion investment followed in 2021) and co-locating the primary care company鈥檚 outlets adjacent to some of its stores in the Houston area, Walgreens is ready to turn the page on this business.</p><p>At one time, Walgreens anticipated having more than 600 VillageMD locations, but that optimism quickly faded. Last April, the retailer announced plans to close 160 of the clinics. Attempts to find a buyer for VillageMD and its related businesses so far have been unsuccessful. Sycamore now will try to accelerate these efforts, analysts suggest.</p><p>Walgreens estimates that it could get as much as $3.4 billion from a VillageMD sale, but some believe that the business, which includes more than 345 locations and related businesses Village Medical, Summit Health and CityMD, is worth far less. A more realistic figure might be $1 billion, Sandeep Dahiya, academic director of the Business of Health Initiative at Georgetown University 's McDonough School of Business, told Modern Healthcare.</p><h3><span>2</span> <span>|</span> Significant downsizing could be coming.</h3><p>Walgreens is facing crushing debt of about $9 billion as well as opioid-related liabilities and other items that Sycamore had to account for in the total $23.7 billion price tag, the Wall Street Journal reports. Shedding underperforming stores and sharply downsizing nonessential management and personnel to reduce costs could follow, some analysts suggest. Selling off assets like VillageMD also could help with the turnaround effort as Sycamore and Walgreens focus on long-term growth opportunities.</p><h3><span>3</span> <span>|</span> This represents Walgreens鈥� opportunity for rebirth.</h3><p>Some analysts believe that Sycamore鈥檚 experience in retail will help Walgreens regain its footing and give it breathing space to sort through its business difficulties without the glare of the financial media. With the retailer being taken private, it won鈥檛 face some of the pressures of achieving quarter-to-quarter growth and can focus on driving long-term growth and improvements in its businesses before selling off some of them.</p><p>Having a multiyear hold period will allow Walgreens and Sycamore to emphasize and drive the business evolution, Howard Gutman, private equity strategy and coverage lead for MorganFranklin Consulting, noted in a recent interview. After that, they can make some significant changes and then realize the results through whatever route they think is best.</p><h3><span>4</span> <span>|</span> High debt level could impact turnaround.</h3><p>Based on financing commitments Walgreens disclosed in a <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1618921/000119312525050097/d935649ddefa14a.htm" target="_blank" title="SEC: Form 8-K Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc.">March 10 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission</a>, 83.4% of the financing for Sycamore鈥檚 buyout is debt, notes the Private Equity Stakeholder Project (PESP). This is more than double the average debt level (41%) used by private equity firms to acquire companies last year.</p><p>The PESP is a nonprofit watchdog organization focused on growing private equity and the broader private funds industry.</p><p>鈥淭he amount of debt in the Walgreens acquisition is concerning, in addition to Sycamore Partners pledging capital that it does not appear to have. This leveraged buyout tactic saddles private equity-owned companies with substantial debt, often draining resources that otherwise could be invested in innovation, workforce development or adapting to market changes,鈥� notes a <a href="https://pestakeholder.org/news/sycamore-partners-to-finance-walgreens-buyout-with-83-debt/" target="_blank" title="Private Equity Stakeholder Project: Sycamore Partners to finance Walgreens buyout with 83% debt">report on the PESP website</a>.</p><p>Nevertheless, more than a dozen parties already lined up to provide financing, according to people familiar with the matter, the <a target="_blank" title="Wall Street Journal: Walgreens Goes From $100 Billion Health Giant to Private-Equity Salvage Project" rhef="https://www.wsj.com/business/retail/walgreens-private-equity-sale-rise-fall-42ac5db6">Wall Street Journal reported</a>.</p></div><div class="col-md-4"><p><a href="/center" title="Visit the AHA Center for Health Innovation landing page."><img src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/logo-aha-innovation-center-color-sm.jpg" data-entity-uuid="7ade6b12-de98-4d0b-965f-a7c99d9463c5" alt="AHA Center for Health Innovation logo" width="721" height="130" data-entity- type="file" class="align-center"></a></p><p><a href="/center/form/innovation-subscription"><img src="/sites/default/files/2019-04/Market_Scan_Call_Out_360x300.png" data-entity-uuid data-entity-type alt width="360" height="300"></a></p></div></div></div>.field_featured_image { position: absolute; overflow: hidden; clip: rect(0 0 0 0); height: 1px; width: 1px; margin: -1px; padding: 0; border: 0; } .featured-image{ position: absolute; overflow: hidden; clip: rect(0 0 0 0); height: 1px; width: 1px; margin: -1px; padding: 0; border: 0; } h2 { color: #9d2235; } Tue, 18 Mar 2025 06:15:00 -0500 Retail Health Care Emory Healthcare Network Partnership Builds New Paths to Access /aha-center-health-innovation-market-scan/2025-03-04-emory-healthcare-network-partnership-builds-new-paths-access <div class="container"><div class="row"><div class="col-md-8"><img src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/Emory-%20Healthcare-Network-Partnership-Builds-New-Paths-to-Access.png" data-entity-uuid="427b2645-479d-4131-9fff-19a46a157001" data-entity-type="file" alt="Emory Healthcare Network Partnership Builds New Paths to Access.

The <a href="https://news.emory.edu/stories/2025/02/hs_cvs_minuteclinic_ehn_primary_care_collaboration_20-02-2025/story.html" target="_blank" title="Emory University Emory News Center: MinuteClinic and Emory Healthcare Network expand primary care access to Georgians">partnership</a> that began in 2011 is evolving to provide more options for primary and preventive care throughout the Atlanta metro area that Emory Healthcare serves. It鈥檚 all part of Emory鈥檚 continuing push to look for meaningful ways to broaden access to primary care in the state and to address a shortage of critical providers, Emory Healthcare leaders note.</p><p>MinuteClinic primary care patients will have access to Emory Healthcare Network鈥檚 extensive resources, including hospitals, specialists, diagnostic and radiology facilities and specialty labs, making it easy for patients to receive additional care when needed.</p><p>Since the outset of their relationship, Emory and MinuteClinic have worked together to offer walk-in adult wellness exams or physicals and sick visits at various MinuteClinic locations. MinuteClinic nurse practitioners and other advanced practice providers staff the clinics and Emory physicians serve as collaborating physicians for the locations, which offer same-day visits and offer evening and weekend hours or virtual services that make care more convenient.</p><p>MinuteClinics largely serve younger, healthier patients, and their expectations around interacting with the health care system are unique, so having MinuteClinic as a network option expands the reach of primary care, Creagh Milford, D.O., president of retail health, recently told Fierce Healthcare.</p><p>And because both Emory and MinuteClinics use Epic electronic health records, it鈥檚 easier to keep the full care team abreast of patient encounters. CVS also has introduced training and new workflows for MinuteClinic staff to focus on such preventive care services as health maintenance visits, screenings and management of chronic conditions.</p></div><div class="col-md-4"><p><a href="/center" title="Visit the AHA Center for Health Innovation landing page."><img src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/logo-aha-innovation-center-color-sm.jpg" data-entity-uuid="7ade6b12-de98-4d0b-965f-a7c99d9463c5" alt="AHA Center for Health Innovation logo" width="721" height="130" data-entity- type="file" class="align-center"></a></p><p><a href="/center/form/innovation-subscription"><img src="/sites/default/files/2019-04/Market_Scan_Call_Out_360x300.png" data-entity-uuid data-entity-type alt width="360" height="300"></a></p></div></div></div>.field_featured_image { position: absolute; overflow: hidden; clip: rect(0 0 0 0); height: 1px; width: 1px; margin: -1px; padding: 0; border: 0; } .featured-image{ position: absolute; overflow: hidden; clip: rect(0 0 0 0); height: 1px; width: 1px; margin: -1px; padding: 0; border: 0; } h2 { color: #9d2235; } Tue, 04 Mar 2025 06:00:00 -0600 Retail Health Care Advocate Health Pulls Out of Walgreens Clinic Locations in Illinois and Wisconsin /aha-center-health-innovation-market-scan/2025-02-11-advocate-health-pulls-out-walgreens-clinic-locations-illinois-and-wisconsin <div class="container"><div class="row"><div class="col-md-8"><img src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/Advocate-Health-Pulls-Out-of-Walgreens-Clinic-Locations-in-Illinois-and-Wisconsin.png" data-entity-uuid="938fa5cf-d0b1-4c8e-93bf-edde8223bd2e" data-entity-type="file" alt="Advocate Health Pulls Out of Walgreens Clinic Locations in Illinois and Wisconsin.

This service is available for some individual and commercial members in Houston, San Antonio and the greater Atlanta area, with plans for future expansion. <a href="https://www.cvs.com/minuteclinic" target="_blank" title="MinuteClinic homepage">MinuteClinics</a>, located in CVS pharmacies, total about 1,100 locations nationwide.</p><p>Creagh Milford, D.O., MPH, president of retail health for CVS, said that while the national average wait time for a primary care appointment is about 26 days, some MinuteClinic patients report having waited three months to a year to see their primary care provider. This lack of timely access often results in higher-cost visits to emergency departments or urgent care centers and limits preventive care access.</p><p>MinuteClinics currently serve about 5 million patients, with data showing that about half do not have a primary care provider or have not seen one in years. This represents an opportunity for CVS to connect patients with essential primary care services. Milford noted that in pilot markets, interest in primary care services has been strong.</p><p>Historically, MinuteClinics have offered wellness visits, chronic condition management and behavioral health services. In these initial markets, this has expanded to include a full range of primary care services. MinuteClinics leverage Epic's electronic health record system to support comprehensive population health management and identify care gaps, enabling value-based primary care delivery.</p><p>CVS鈥檚 expansion into primary care with MinuteClinics includes plans to launch in two more markets this year and expand further in 2025.

A business man with Walmart, CVS, and Walgreens logos on the back of his suitcoat and holding a giant ruler faces a bar graph showing a downward trend." width="100%" height="100%"></p><p>In 2024, retail health care faced significant disruption as industry giants like Walgreens, CVS and Walmart reevaluated their health care strategies in response to rising operational costs, reimbursement challenges and shifting market conditions. The difficulties encountered by these companies illustrate the complex nature of balancing health care delivery with traditional retail operations, requiring more than capital investments to remain sustainable.</p><p>Managing care services within a retail framework has proven to be a formidable task. Retailers must align their strategies within health care regulations, manage unpredictable reimbursement models and overcome staffing shortages, all while maintaining profitability. With rising labor costs and an uncertain financial landscape, several major retailers are scaling back their health care ambitions or pivoting to new approaches.</p><h2><span>Walgreens</span> <span>|</span> Scaling Back VillageMD</h2><p>Walgreens, once committed to making VillageMD the centerpiece of its health care strategy, has significantly altered its course. At the <a href="https://www.walgreensbootsalliance.com/news-media/our-stories/walgreens-hlth-2024-committing-patient-care-local-communities" target="_blank" title="Walgreens Boots Alliance: Pharmacy & Healthcare Walgreens at HLTH 2024: Committing to patient care in local communities">HLTH Conference</a> in October, Walgreens鈥� U.S. health care president, Mary Langowski, revealed that the company is moving away from an exclusive reliance on VillageMD and adopting a diversified approach to health care delivery.</p><p>This year, <a href="/aha-center-health-innovation-market-scan/2024-04-09-walgreens-shutters-160-villagemd-clinics-after-6-billion-loss">Walgreens closed 160 VillageMD clinics</a> 鈥� approximately half of its footprint 鈥� due to rising operational costs, marking a significant retrenchment. The closures reflect broader financial pressures across the company, which also announced plans to shutter 1,200 retail stores, or about 14% of its total locations, over the next three years.</p><p>Walgreens had invested heavily in VillageMD, committing more than $6 billion to acquire a majority stake in 2021, with ambitions to expand into primary care. The aggressive expansion included the $8.9 billion acquisition of Summit Health+CityMD in 2023, adding multispecialty and urgent care services. However, the company struggled with financial headwinds in its pharmacy and retail segments, forcing a strategic pivot.</p><p>Walgreens now seeks to leverage its extensive retail network by deepening partnerships with multiple payers and pharmacy benefit managers. This shift signals a departure from a single-provider model and aims to position Walgreens as an integral part of the health care journey 鈥� offering touch points throughout the care continuum without being tied to a singular partner.</p><p>As part of its new strategy, Walgreens announced an <a href="https://www.walgreensbootsalliance.com/news-media/our-stories/walgreens-expands-virtual-healthcare-services-30-states-adds-lab-test-orders" target="_blank" title="Walgreens Books Alliance: Walgreens expands virtual healthcare services to 30 states, adds lab test orders and virtual STD treatments">expansion of its virtual health care</a>, which offers consultations for common conditions, as well as prescription questions and lab orders. Last week, the pharmacy retailer said it would provide virtual care to 30 states.</p><h2><span>CVS Health</span> <span>|</span> Facing Leadership Changes and Financial Pressures</h2><p>CVS Health also <a href="https://www.cvshealth.com/news/company-news/cvs-health-appoints-david-joyner-president-and-chief-executive-officer.html" target="_blank" title="CVS Health: CVS Health Appoints David Joyner President and Chief Executive Officer">announced a strategic realignment</a> in October, with CEO Karen Lynch stepping down amid the company鈥檚 mounting financial difficulties. Longtime executive David Joyner will take the helm as CVS contends with a decline in stock prices and rising costs within its Aetna health benefits segment, which includes Medicare Advantage plans.</p><p>Financial pressures have forced CVS to lower its earnings outlook three times this year. In a cost-cutting move, the company recently laid off approximately 2,900 employees and announced plans to reduce expenses by $2 billion. These measures include discontinuing some Coram infusion services and closing or selling 29 retail pharmacy locations.</p><p>Despite these challenges, CVS remains committed to expanding its primary care footprint through Oak Street Health, which operates more than 200 stand-alone centers across 25 states. CVS intends to open 24 additional Oak Street locations by year-end, demonstrating its belief in the long-term potential of primary care, even as other retailers are pulling back from the sector.</p><h2><span>Walmart</span> <span>|</span> Exiting Health Care Ambitions</h2><p>Earlier this year, Walmart announced that it would <a href="https://corporate.walmart.com/news/2024/04/30/walmart-health-is-closing" target="_blank" title="Walmart Corporate: Walmart Health Is Closing">close all 51 of its health clinics</a> and discontinue its virtual care services. The closures come as Walmart struggles to build a viable business model for health care operations launched in 2019. Positioned to provide affordable care in underserved communities, Walmart鈥檚 clinics faced challenges related to reimbursement structures and rising operational costs.</p><p>Initially, Walmart planned to expand its health care offerings, but rising expenses and market dynamics forced the company to retreat from health care delivery.</p><h2><span>Amazon</span> <span>|</span> Staying the Course amid Market Shifts</h2><p>While some retailers retreated from health care, Amazon continues to invest heavily in the sector. In 2023, Amazon acquired One Medical, a provider of physician-staffed clinics and virtual care services, which now operates nearly 240 offices across more than 20 U.S. markets.</p><p>At the HLTH Conference, <a href="https://newsroom.clevelandclinic.org/2024/10/21/cleveland-clinic-and-amazon-one-medical-announce-collaboration-to-expand-access-to-high-quality-coordinated-care-in-the-cleveland-area" target="_blank" title="Cleveland Clinic: Cleveland Clinic and Amazon One Medical Announce Collaboration to Expand Access to High-Quality Coordinated Care in the Cleveland Area ">Amazon announced a new partnership with Cleveland Clinic</a>, designed to coordinate care between One Medical鈥檚 primary care clinics and Cleveland Clinic鈥檚 network of specialists and hospitals. Amazon鈥檚 continued investment signals confidence in the future of retail health care, emphasizing the role of technology and partnerships in meeting consumer demand for accessible care.</p><h2><span>Key Takeaways</span> <span>|</span> The Future of Retail Health Care</h2><p>The divergent paths taken by Walgreens, CVS, Walmart and Amazon reflect the complex dynamics of retail health care. Success in this space depends on more than infrastructure and capital. Companies must align their strategies with market realities, maintain operational efficiency, create sustainable care models and compete with established providers.</p><p>Retailers venturing into health care must address rising labor costs, evolving reimbursement models and the intricacies of managing health care delivery alongside retail operations. As the industry evolves, technology, partnerships and flexible care models will play pivotal roles in determining which players can succeed in meeting consumer needs while maintaining profitability.</p><h3><span>Learn More</span></h3><p>This <a href="/aha-center-health-innovation-market-scan/2024-02-19-special-report-how-health-care-disruptors-will-transform-field">AHA Market Scan Trailblazer special report</a> explores the health care disruption outlook for 2024.</p></div><div class="col-md-4"><p><a href="/center" title="Visit the AHA Center for Health Innovation landing page."><img src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/logo-aha-innovation-center-color-sm.jpg" data-entity-uuid="7ade6b12-de98-4d0b-965f-a7c99d9463c5" alt="AHA Center for Health Innovation logo" width="721" height="130" data-entity- type="file" class="align-center"></a></p><p><a href="/center/form/innovation-subscription"><img src="/sites/default/files/2019-04/Market_Scan_Call_Out_360x300.png" data-entity-uuid data-entity-type alt width="360" height="300"></a></p></div></div></div>.field_featured_image { position: absolute; overflow: hidden; clip: rect(0 0 0 0); height: 1px; width: 1px; margin: -1px; padding: 0; border: 0; } .featured-image{ position: absolute; overflow: hidden; clip: rect(0 0 0 0); height: 1px; width: 1px; margin: -1px; padding: 0; border: 0; } Tue, 05 Nov 2024 06:15:00 -0600 Retail Health Care
