But Amazon has the scale and would “have opportunities to leverage” all its data in the health space. “It’s true that One Medical is not a major health-care player,” said David Dayen in The American Prospect- at this point. Amazon’s 2017 deal for Whole Foods didn’t make it a dominant grocer, but it did “spook retail rivals to redouble their food delivery efforts.”
One Medical, with about 767,000 patients, is still only “a niche player in a massive market.” The greater significance of this deal may be seen in how others respond. It bought the mail-order pharmacy PillPack in 2018 and started a primary-care network, Amazon Care, for its employees. “The status quo in health care is miserable,” and Amazon “recognizes the system’s many flaws and inefficiencies” just from “trying to offer better care” to its 1.6 million employees.Īmazon is “serious about building a comprehensive health-care business,” said John Tozzi and Matt Day in Bloomberg. Obviously, the tech giant “will have to work hard to convince consumers - and likely politicians - that its intentions are pure.” Then again, winning people over might not be so difficult. īy reporting you will allow Prodigy to remove the content and moderate the accounts for these rule violations to ensure the safety and fairness of the game for everyone.The smartest insight and analysis, from all perspectives, rounded up from around the web:Īmazon is buying my doctor’s office, said Ari Levy at CNBC, and now “the same company that sends me countless boxes every week” will “own the portals containing my medical information.” Amazon has been pushing into the health space for years, “but I never took into account the possibility that it might one day own One Medical.” Then last week Amazon announced plans to acquire the nationwide primary-care network - which happens to be my own care provider - for $3.9 billion.
