Amazon's cloud infrastructure could enable its joint venture with Berkshire Hathaway and JPMorgan Chase to target new supply chain models, record-keeping and care delivery. Experts at CB Insights, a firm that analyses data on venture capitalists and start-up, believes the company would incorporate a mail-order pharmacy service into its distribution model, similar to that of PillPack which it acquired for nearly $1 billion in June. It would potentially use subsidiary Whole Foods as a pharmacy benefit manager. The company is also exploring new ways to access electronic health records through its Lab 1492 project.
