Walgreens CEO And CFO First to Speak Out -Repeal of Healthcare Law Would Wreck Their Business Models (aka their Algorithms)

I just made this post yesterday on the same topic, those folks need to get some Algo Men before opening their mouths as this big retailer has already ran theirs, so it makes you wonder is everyone except politicians in the know here with business models and algorithmic methodologies? Didn’t take long for the first item to hit the news and again being public companies those folks have ton of Algo Men lined up to help them with projections and estimating profits and margins. They know where their data comes from, the cost, what it touches and what many of the unintentional consequences are ahead of time to avoid this.

Talk of Repealing Healthcare Law–How About the Expense of the IT Infrastructure Algorithm Resets And Costs That Would Be Required?

I guess we still have some 8 track technology still hanging around? It’s all about those algorithms and the processes they create and politicians are just slow to catch on to this. Here’s one more from 2 days ago. Anybody listening and thinking about coming out of tech denial, I sure hope so!

Election Is Done-Future for Healthcare Needs Role Models And Hopefully Not A Return to the Era of 8 Track Tapes and Old Paradigms

It’s not Superman, Spiderman or even Wonder Woman that creates solutions and become our heroes, it’s the “Algo Men” with all the data, algorithms and wisdom for innovation. BD

The GOP's assertion that it will repeal President Obama's Heath Care Reform Initiative could wreck the new business model Walgreens unveiled at its analyst meeting Thursday. Walgreens CEO Greg Wesson, Walgreens Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Wade Miquelon and other Walgreens executives, specifically Walgreens President of Pharmacy Services, Kermit Crawford, presented the store retailer's new strategy: being a health care provider.

The presentation shows that the GOP, contrary to its claims, has not listened to American Business. Walgreens executives explained that they expect a demand for 32 million health care customers that were not in the system before. As Kermit Crawford explained, Walgreens is well-positioned to take up the "demand void." And Wade Miquelon added that Walgreens is "embedding continuous process improvement and innovation into the fabric of our company," in an effort to handle that demand.
