TJ Parker and Elliot Cohen, the founders of PillPack which Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) acquired in 2018 for ~$750M, are leaving the company, CNBC reported.
The two men were instrumental in the launch of Amazon Pharmacy in the fall of 2020. PillPack provides an individual's medications pre-sorted in small packets based on dose date and time.

In a LinkedIn post, Parker and Cohen said that after taking some time off, they "will likely both return our focus to starting, investing in, and advising other healthcare and consumer--oriented businesses."
In December, CNBC reported that Neil Lindsay, who previously helmed Amazon Prime, was promoted to senior vice president of health and brand.
Amazon has been pushing further into healthcare. In July, the company said it would buy membership-based physician-based platform One Medical (ONEM) for ~$3.9B.
