While Apple is claiming it is a big name in the health industry because people are using its smart watches Amazon is really becoming a big name by acquiring the US private health network One Medical for US$3.9 billion.

Neil Lindsay, vice president of Amazon’s health branch, in a statement that the online book seller intends to reinvent the health sector -- hopefully it will be thinking about making things a little cheaper.

Amazon has been interested in health for a while. In 2019, it launched a telemedicine service, called Amazon Care. Initially dedicated to the firm’s employees, the service, which includes home visits, was offered in 2021 to all companies in the United States.
