  • Health Robotics cancels McKesson deal
    Health Robotics gave notice to McKesson Corp. (NYSE:MCK) for the immediate termination of the companies’ exclusive CytoCare distribution and services contract in North America, as well as the termination of their non-exclusive distribution agreement for i.v.STATION and i.v.SOFT within a subset of McKesson Automation’s customers. Health Robotics does not expect this early termination to have a material impact on its overall North American installations given the fact that McKesson’s contracts represented less than 10 percent of all Health Robotics’ contracted installations in the U.S. and Canada since the companies executed their initial IV Automation agreement in August 2009. More specifically, i.v.STATION and i.v.SOFT customers should not be disrupted at all by this termination due to the fact that 100 percent of these installations were contracted for and implemented by non-McKesson Health Robotics’ partners and their associates, who will continue to support these i.v.STATION and i.v.SOFT customers without pause. Until further notice and pending regulatory compliance review, CytoCare customers that have contracts with McKesson Automation should refer their questions about ongoing maintenance and support to McKesson.
