CVS Health announced plans to divide into two separate companies, separating its pharmacy operations from health insurance. The move is part of a significant restructuring of its $117 billion healthcare empire. The pharmacy division will operate independently, potentially allowing more focus on beauty and wellness products. The decision follows reports of stock price declines and potential changes in Connecticut. The split is expected to form two separate entities, each focusing on different aspects of the healthcare industry.
