Three medical associations and two other health care organizations in Massachusetts have asked the state's Dept. of Public Health to exercise careful consideration and hold a public hearing before waiving certain clinic requirements in favor of MinuteClinic, the Minneapolis-based operator of retail-based health clinics.
MinuteClinic asked the state for exemptions from several requirements, such as providing receptacles for soiled linens and having examination rooms of a certain size, in preparation for its plans to open clinics in Boston-area CVS pharmacies.
