CVS Health launched Clinical Trial Services (CTS) in mid-2021, with the aim of expanding clinical trial participation in previously underserved demographics, because a CVS retail location is no more than 10 miles from the majority of the American population. Dr. Owen Garrick, MD, Chief Medical Officer at CTS, discusses how the accessibility and flexibility of this decentralized model can address issues of diverse participation in clinical trials.
