How Will Amazon Approach U.S. Primary Care?
By: Robert S. Huckman and Bradley Staats
Abstract
Amazon has a playbook for reinventing businesses that it enters. It includes simplifying processes, experimenting to determine which new approaches work best, and continuously recombining its existing assets to come up with a better way to do things. It is likely to use this same approach in trying to transform primary care in the United States. This means that its $3.9 billion acquisition of One Medical marks the beginning, not the end, of its efforts.
