S3 Ep4 | Amazon and the Future of Healthcare

What’s a natural extension to the platform Amazon has built that we discussed in detail during Episode 3? Healthcare. Why? It serves Amazon and their network of employees while also being another service they could offer to their broader network of marketplace members and business partners and possibly directly to their incredibly large customer base.Amazon has unquestionably changed how we shop. Will they change the way we shop for or manage our health? When you look at industries ripe for disruption, retail was one. Healthcare, being a $4.1T business is clearly another one. But Amazon’s entry into Healthcare has been less than revolutionary. Their take on medication management, telehealth and recent acquisitions gives us indications of what they’re thinking. Though they are shutting down Amazon Care, they are in the process of acquiring One Medical.
