This will allow us to expand our set of solutions and continue to pursue our goal of achieving health results for everyone. “
McCson is ranked ninth in the list of Fortune 500 of 2024, making it the biggest health company in the United States and one of the 10 largest revenue companies.
McCson said this deal would allow him to achieve several key strategic goals:
- Develop a leading platform for retinal and ophthalmology, expanding McKesson’s differentiated proposal, clinical services and distribution suggestions. Practice -related programs include more than 180 suppliers, 91 office seats and seven outpatient surgical centers
- Extend data and analysis options
- Additional innovative investments in clinical studies options

“McCson’s long history to support specialized doctors by emphasizing the clinical quality and improving patients’ access to care is fully aligned with the basic values and culture of the Prism Vision Group,” says the statement Dr. Stephen Madreper, Executive Director of Prism Vision. “We are glad that we can gather the exclusive base of the providers and the platform for providing services with the deep experience of Mckesson in providing care of more developing and expanding your network for eye care.”
Once the deal is completed, Prism Vision will be consolidated in McKesson’s American pharmaceutical segment.
