Haven, Amazon s health venture with JPMorgan and Berkshire Hathaway, is disbanding.
Details about Haven have been few and far between ever since it was announced in 2018. It started without a clear mandate from the founding companies and never landed on one.
Haven s first big bet on primary care was shut down when the coronavirus pandemic started. Dozens of employees left the venture in the spring and summer, including Dr. Atul Gawande, its CEO.
The venture s failure is coming at a shock to an industry that thought it could be transformational.
Business Insider tracked Haven s three-year struggle to find a voice in healthcare before it disbanded.
