I think people overestimate Amazon's ability to truly disrupt markets. Not saying they aren't going to be a big player in pharmacy, but size - no matter how good you are - inhibits total domination.

Also, this year at the BK conference, Warren didn't seem super optimistic that Haven was going to make any real impact in the near future.

Haven is attempting to cover so many lives, from the onset, that I think they can't treat it like a true startup.

The whole "move fast and break things" mantra isn't as applicable to healthcare, where the consequences of failure can be more dire.
