Face-Off: Pharmaceutical Distributors Cardinal, McKesson and AmerisourceBergen

Your summary of industry dynamics is not accurate with regard to the role of wholesalers between large buyers (like CVS and WAG). I also believe that mergers of pharma manufacturers will effect drug wholesalers through fee-for-service agreements.

I recently wrote a report on the industry that explains these supply chain dynamics. It is available from the non-profit Institute for Distribution Excellence:
