...Ellison, his son, is founder of Skydance Media, a major Hollywood production company (Mission: Impossible and others) and negotiating a zillion-dollar merger with Paramount Pictures. David’s wife is a singer trying to make it in Music City and they have a home there. Kind of like the age-old trend of moving the HQ near where the CEO’s living. On moving the HQ to Nashville from Austin, this would affect perhaps 2,500 workers based there currently. Most of Oracle’s workers are dispersed and work remotely. 6,400 of former Cerner-ites are still in Missouri and 7,000 remain in California. Big hat tip... Continue Reading

Walmart Health shutters health centers, Walmart Virtual Care, in sudden move (updated–why?)
...inked last year. The MA plan was available in Georgia only, with ambitions to expand. Other partner programs were available in Florida and Georgia. Becker’s Walmart Health Virtual Care, in contrast, has no such notice on its website. Virtual Care services may be more problematic to shut down as they are provided to health plan members (e.g. UnitedHealthcare) and employers. Walmart Health acquired MeMD telehealth in May 2021 in very different times–at that time, they had five million members. Virtual Care also covers behavioral health. That winddown may differ in timing based on contracts and patient handoffs. The release affirms... Continue Reading

What the DOJ and FTC Merger Guidelines mean for healthcare M&A–a Epstein Becker Green podcast
...the Guidelines don’t have the force of law, but they do have impact because they are about the process on how mergers are evaluated. Courts have been very deferential to the Guidelines. Mr. Morris: hospital leaders will have to contemplate this “huge change in a moment” which he questioned. He emphasized that organizations involve their antitrust counsel now even earlier than previously. Mr. Steren: “healthcare has a bullseye on its back”. It is immediately more restrictive. It fits right in with what current enforcers do in trying to bring “persuasive authority” to bring new, novel, cases into court. He seconded... Continue Reading
Who really has the 4TB of Change Healthcare data 4 sale? And in great timing, Optum lays off a rumored 20K–say wot?
...Amedisys buy stalling. Here’s a view at variance, not about the layoffs but about how UHG is really doing. STAT’s analysis of UHG’s financial report is that the Change losses barely dent the overall picture and won’t affect 2024 earnings. Q1’s loss was mostly the Brazil writedown. It also confirmed that CEO Andrew Witty had a certain gall to say in prepared remarks that the Change situation would have been so much worse had they not been owned by UHG. Mr. Witty will have some ‘splainin’ to do before the House and the Senate, 30 April and 1 May, respectively.... Continue Reading

TandemStride launches platform to assist survivors of traumatic injury; a personal look
...brother had a bi-lateral amputation as a college student due to a train accident in 2012. His brother’s injury and recovery had its ups and downs, but he had the important and focused help of his mother, a nurse. This led to Matt looking at others with similar injuries, which are all too common. Psychiatrists, like your Editor’s brother, see many of them in everyday practice. Beyond the physical injuries, there is PTSD coupled with loss of employment and ordinary socialization due to lack of physical ability. One in four have PTSD. But with help, they can overcome.
