CVS Health announced plans to split into two separate companies, dividing its pharmacy operations from health insurance. The move is part of a major 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 news of stock price drops and potential changes in Connecticut. The split is expected to create two distinct entities, each focusing on different aspects of the healthcare industry.
