WOONSOCKET, R.I. — CVS Pharmacy is acquiring six ProMedica outpatient pharmacies in Ohio, five of which will close.

CVS Pharmacy said it will take over operations of the ProMedica Pharmacy Counter in Oregon, Ohio, and convert it to a CVS Pharmacy outlet in November. The other five pharmacies, all in Toledo, Ohio, will be closed by mid-October and their files will be transferred to nearby stores.

“CVS Pharmacy and ProMedica are working together to ensure the transition will be seamless for patients and their access to pharmacy care is not interrupted,” commented Neeraj Kanwal, senior vice president of inpatient and retail pharmacy at ProMedica.

CVS Pharmacy, the retail division of CVS Health, offers a range of pharmacy services at more than 9,700 locations. Services include medication adherence programs, automatic refills to help patients take their medications on time and as directed, immunizations, text alerts to inform patients when their prescriptions are ready and digital tools to help patients manage their prescriptions.

Toledo-based ProMedica Health Systems Inc. is a nonprofit health care provider offering medical services to residents of northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan. It offers a health plan, Paramount, serving more than 330,000 members. The network also offers a range of diagnostic, medical and surgical specialties in areas such as emergency medicine and trauma, heart and vascular, oncology, neurology, women’s services, and children’s services.

“We’re pleased to partner with ProMedica and look forward to bringing our innovative pharmacy care programs and services to patients in Ohio,” remarked Alisa Ulrey, area vice president at CVS Pharmacy.
