CVS is merging with AETNA in a $69 billion deal that could change the health care industry. The drug store giant's plans reportedly include pushing the health insurance company's 22 million enrollees towards their clinics rather than hospitals. Host Dan Loney speaks with Mark Pauly, Professor of Health Care Management and Professor of Business Economics and Public Policy at the Wharton School, and Robert Field, Health Care Management Department Lecturer at the Wharton School and Professor of Law and Public Health at Drexel University's Thomas R. Kline School of Law and Dornsife School of Public Health, to discuss the merger's potential impacts on Knowledge@Wharton.
