Pharmacy benefit management organization MIM Corp., Pearl River, NY, announced Jan. 28 that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Continental Managed Pharmacy Services, Cleveland, for 3.8 million shares of MIM common stock. Continental's gross operating profit was $8 million on revenues totaling $48.7 million in 1997.
