CVS HEALTH CORP (CVS)

CVS Health is an American healthcare company that owns CVS Pharmacy, a retail pharmacy chain; CVS Caremark, a pharmacy benefits manager; and Aetna, a health insurance provider. There are also other brands that CVS Health owns.

The business first began as a chain of health and beauty aid stores. After several years, pharmacies were added. After that, the company joined the Melville Corporation, which managed a string of retail businesses. Following a period of growth in the 1990s, CVS Corporation spun off from Melville in 1996, becoming a standalone company trading on the New York Stock Exchange as CVS.
