Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segment Information | Segment Information We report our operations in two operating segments: McKesson Distribution Solutions and McKesson Technology Solutions. The factors for determining the reportable segments included the manner in which management evaluates the performance of the Company combined with the nature of the individual business activities. We evaluate the performance of our operating segments on a number of measures, including operating profit before interest expense, income taxes and results from discontinued operations. Financial information relating to our reportable operating segments and reconciliations to the condensed consolidated totals is as follows:

(2) | 2018 revenues for the Technology Solutions segment include the results of our EIS business. Effective April 1, 2017, our RHP business was transitioned from the Technology Solutions segment to the Distribution Solutions segment. The first quarter of 2017 included the majority of our Core MTS Business which was contributed to Change Healthcare on March 1, 2017.
(3) | Distribution Solutions operating profit for the first quarters of 2018 and 2017 include $26 million and $47 million in pre-tax charges related to our last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method of accounting for inventories. LIFO expense was less in 2018 primarily due to the lower full year expectations for net price increases compared to the same period a year ago. Additionally, the first quarter of 2017 includes $142 million of net cash proceeds representing our share of net settlements of antitrust class action lawsuits against drug manufacturers.
(4) | Operating profit for our Technology Solutions segment for the first quarter of 2018 includes our EIS business, our proportionate share of loss from Change Healthcare of $120 million and a pre-tax gain of $37 million from the Healthcare Technology Net Asset Exchange related to the final net working capital and other adjustments.
