Here are three things to know about where CVS Health stands today that Becker’s has reported on since Aug. 1:

1. CVS Health is looking to trim hundreds of millions of dollars from its cost structure while also standing up 50 to 60 more Oak Street Health clinics in 2024.

2. CVS Health posted 10.3 percent higher revenues in its second-quarter earnings released Aug. 2 and beat investor expectations, but the company’s net income dropped 37 percent year over year, largely because of company-wide restructuring, acquisition-related expenses, increased medical utilization among older adults and continued pressure on pharmacy reimbursements.

3. CVS Health is eliminating thousands of “non-customer facing positions” across the company, a spokesperson confirmed with Becker’s. Five thousand jobs are affected.

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
