Clearing this regulatory hurdle brings Amazon one step closer to acquiring One Medical’s 188 in-person locations and virtual care technology, further expanding its healthcare footprint.
The Oregon Health Authority (OHA) has approved Amazon’s plans to acquire One Medical, a virtual and in-person primary care organization, for $3.9 billion.
After conducting a 30-day preliminary review of the proposed transaction, the agency concluded that the merger is unlikely to significantly reduce access to affordable healthcare in the state.
“In the locations where One Medical operates in Oregon, patients have many other options to access similar types of services,” the agency noted in an executive summary of the review. “OHA does not anticipate that this transaction will result in increased prices.”
