Activist investor Starboard Value LP has taken a stake in CVS Health Corp. and held talks with the drugstore-and-insurance giant’s management, according to people familiar with the matter.

But Starboard is one of the top activist-investment firms and its presence in a stock usually causes a company to sit up and take notice.
