Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] |
BUSINESS OPTIMIZATION CHARGES | BUSINESS OPTIMIZATION CHARGES In recent years, we have undertaken actions to transform our cost structure and enhance operational efficiency. These efforts include restructuring the organization, optimizing the manufacturing footprint, R&D operations and supply chain network, employing disciplined cost management, and centralizing and streamlining certain support functions. The related costs of those actions consisted primarily of employee termination costs, implementation costs, contract termination costs, and asset impairments. We currently expect to incur additional pre-tax costs, primarily related to the implementation of business optimization programs, of approximately $7 million through the completion of initiatives that are currently underway. We continue to pursue cost savings initiatives, including those related to our newly implemented operating model, intended to simplify and streamline our operations, and to the extent further cost savings opportunities are identified (including after completion of the proposed Kidney Care separation), we would incur additional restructuring charges and costs to implement business optimization programs in future periods. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we recorded the following charges related to business optimization programs.

For segment reporting purposes, business optimization charges are unallocated expenses. Costs to implement business optimization programs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, consisted primarily of external consulting and transition costs, including employee compensation and related costs. These costs were primarily included within cost of sales and SG&A expense. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we recorded the following restructuring charges.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, $6 million of the restructuring charges reflected in the table above, consisting of asset impairments, related to a transfer of a manufacturing production line as part of our initiatives to optimize our global manufacturing and supply chain organization. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, $27 million of the restructuring charges reflected in the table above were related to a program to centralize certain of our R&D activities into a new location, and to our recent implementation of a new operating model intended to simplify and streamline our operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, $19 million and $97 million, respectively, of the restructuring charges reflected in the table above, consisting of employee termination costs, were related to the implementation of our previously announced new operating model intended to simplify and streamline our operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, $253 million of the restructuring charges reflected in the table above, consisting of $243 million of long-lived asset impairment charges and $10 million of employee termination costs, were related to our decision to cease production at one of our dialyzer manufacturing facilities in connection with our initiatives to streamline our manufacturing footprint and improve our profitability. See Note 3 for additional information. The following table summarizes activity in the liability related to our restructuring initiatives.
