Any tips for my first day at CVS? I interned for them during an APPE, so I'm familiar with the computer.

Supervisor says I will have 2 hours of overlap, then I am on my own.

Keep your head down, and verify. If possible, have your technicians handle the insurance side for now. Try to learn the skill set of each technician under you, so you can better direct them.

I like how you explained it as if OP’s going into a war zone.

Expect everything to turn red.

Also, your supervisor might come in and pull you away from the pharmacy for 30min-1 hour to talk about metrics. When you come back, it will take 4-5 hours to recover from that.
