Retail health care services are on the horizon and the companies that operate them continue to innovate, grow, and expand. Retail clinics appeal to consumer desire for convenience and offer a low-cost, high-quality service. While there were few retail clinics a decade ago, today there are more than 3,000 clinics in 44 states and Washington, D.C. More than 50 million patient visits are done annually by mainly nurse practitioners and physician assistants in retail pharmacies, big box retailers, and larger supermarket chains with pharmacies.
