Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segments of Business | Segments of Business Commencing in the second quarter of 2021, the Company implemented a new segment reporting structure which resulted in four reportable segments: U.S. Pharmaceutical, International, Medical-Surgical Solutions, and RxTS. Other, for retrospective periods presented, consists of the Company’s equity method investment in Change Healthcare JV, which was split-off from McKesson in the fourth quarter of 2020. All prior segment information has been recast to reflect the Company’s new segment structure and current period presentation. The organizational structure also includes Corporate, which consists of income and expenses associated with administrative functions and projects, and the results of certain investments. 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. The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments on a number of measures, including revenues and operating profit before interest expense and income taxes. Assets by operating segment are not reviewed by management for the purpose of assessing performance or allocating resources. The U.S. Pharmaceutical segment distributes branded, generic, specialty, biosimilar, and over-the-counter pharmaceutical drugs and other healthcare-related products. This segment also provides practice management, technology, clinical support, and business solutions to community-based oncology and other specialty practices. In addition, the segment sells financial, operational, and clinical solutions to pharmacies (retail, hospital, alternate site) and provides consulting, outsourcing, technological, and other services. The International segment includes the Company’s operations in Europe and Canada, bringing together non-U.S.-based drug distribution services, specialty pharmacy, retail, and infusion care services. The Company’s operations in Europe provide distribution and services to wholesale, institutional, and retail customers in 13 European countries where it owns, partners, or franchises with retail pharmacies and operates through two businesses: Pharmaceutical Distribution and Retail Pharmacy. The Company’s Canada operations deliver vital medicines, supplies, and information technology services throughout Canada and includes Rexall Health retail pharmacies. McKesson Europe was previously reflected as the European Pharmaceutical Solutions reportable segment and McKesson Canada was previously included in Other. The Medical-Surgical Solutions segment provides medical-surgical supply distribution, logistics, and other services to healthcare providers, including physician offices, surgery centers, nursing homes, hospital reference labs, and home health care agencies. This segment offers more than 275,000 national brand medical-surgical products as well as McKesson’s own line of products through a network of distribution centers within the United States. The RxTS segment brings together existing businesses, including CoverMyMeds, RelayHealth, RxCrossroads, and High Volume Solutions, to serve the Company’s biopharma and life sciences partners and patients, connecting pharmacies, providers, payers, and biopharma. RxCrossroads was previously included in the former U.S. Pharmaceutical and Specialty Solutions reportable segment and CoverMyMeds, RelayHealth, and High Volume Solutions were previously included in Other. Other, for retrospective periods presented consists of the Company’s investment in the Change Healthcare JV, which was split-off from the Company in the fourth quarter of 2020. Financial information relating to the Company’s reportable operating segments and reconciliations to the condensed consolidated totals is as follows:
