亚马逊搁置出售药品计划

日期:2018-04-17
  据知情人士透露,在进行了近半年的研究后,亚马逊旗下批发业务Amazon Business决定暂时放弃向医院出售药品的计划。该计划的难度比该公司此前的预期更具挑战性。
 
  消息公布后,药品零售公司股价上涨。Walgreens Boots Alliance上涨3.7%,而CVS Health和Rite Aid分别上涨4.2%和1.7%。
 
       亚马逊决定专注于向医院和小型诊所出售不太敏感的医疗用品。并发现业务比预期更具挑战性。

  亚马逊此举显示,进军医疗产品和制药供应所面对的挑战。此前有报道称亚马逊有可能进入该领域,几家医疗保健和医药分销公司的股价均一度下跌。
 
  知情人士表示,亚马逊之所以打了退堂鼓是由于其未能说服大医院改变他们的传统采购流程。目前,大医院通常通过中介人员进行采购。此外,亚马逊还需要建立一个更加复杂的物流网络,以运送温度敏感的药品。
 
  尽管如此,亚马逊并没有完全排除最终进入制药分销领域。多家媒体报道称,该公司有朝一日会进军直接面向消费者的处方药业务。多位知情人士表示,Amazon Business可能在获得一定规模后,重新考虑进军进行药品、医疗产品批发。
 
  此外,该公司还通过不同的团队继续探索其他医疗保健项目。亚马逊现在已在其网站出售医疗用品,比如纱布和温度计等。它还有一个名为1492的健康团队,专攻相关的硬件软件项目,例如开发亚马逊Echo智能音箱和智能购物扫描仪Dash Wand。此外,亚马逊的云服务Amazon Web Services将继续主导健康和生命科学市场。
