Amazon’s move into the healthcare sector has been widely mooted over the last 12 months and it officially announced that it would enter the space as part of a joint venture alongside Berkshire Hathaway and JPMorgan Chase.
The joint announcement from the three companies offered precious few details as to what the partnership would entail, only that it would provide technology solutions for “simplified, high-quality and transparent healthcare at a reasonable cost”.
