Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Cardinal Health, Inc. is a globally integrated healthcare services and products company providing customized solutions for hospitals, healthcare systems, pharmacies, ambulatory surgery centers, clinical laboratories and physician offices. The company provides medical products and pharmaceuticals and cost-effective solutions that enhance supply chain efficiency. References to “we”, “our” and similar pronouns in these consolidated financial statements are to Cardinal Health, Inc. and its majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries unless the context otherwise requires. Our fiscal year ends on June 30. References to fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 in these consolidated financial statements are to the fiscal years ended June 30, 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Basis of Presentation Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries, and all significant intercompany transactions and amounts have been eliminated. To conform to the current year presentation, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified. The results of businesses acquired or disposed of are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition or up to the date of disposal, respectively. Use of Estimates Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates, judgments and assumptions are used in the accounting and disclosure related to, among other items, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation and reserves, business combinations, goodwill and other intangible asset impairment, vendor reserves, loss contingencies, self-insurance accruals, income taxes and share-based compensation. Actual amounts could ultimately differ from these estimated amounts. Cash Equivalents We consider liquid investments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of cash equivalents approximates fair value. Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Trade receivables are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $193 million and $139 million at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. An account is considered past due on the first day after its due date. In accordance with contract terms, we generally have the ability to charge customers service fees or higher prices if an account is considered past due. We regularly monitor past due accounts and establish appropriate reserves to cover potential losses, which are based primarily on historical collection rates and the credit worthiness of the customer. We write off any amounts deemed uncollectible against the established allowance for doubtful accounts. We provide financing to various customers. Such financing arrangements range from 1 year to 5 years at interest rates that are generally subject to fluctuation. Interest income on these arrangements is recognized as it is earned. The financings may be collateralized, guaranteed by third parties or unsecured. Finance notes, net and related accrued interest were $103 million (current portion $12 million ) and $136 million (current portion $26 million ) at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, and are included in other assets (current portion is included in prepaid expenses and other) in the consolidated balance sheets. Finance notes receivable allowance for doubtful accounts were $14 million and $7 million at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. We estimate an allowance for these financing receivables based on historical collection rates and the credit worthiness of the customer. We write off any amounts deemed uncollectible against the established allowance for doubtful accounts. Concentrations of Credit Risk We maintain cash depository accounts with major banks, and we invest in high quality, short-term liquid instruments, and in marketable securities. Our short-term liquid instruments mature within three months and we have not historically incurred any related losses. Our trade receivables and finance notes and related accrued interest are exposed to a concentration of credit risk with certain large customers and with customers in the retail and healthcare sectors. Credit risk can be affected by changes in reimbursement and other economic pressures impacting the healthcare industry. With respect to customers in the retail and healthcare sectors, such credit risk is limited due to supporting collateral and the diversity of the customer base, including its wide geographic dispersion. We perform regular credit evaluations of our customers’ financial conditions and maintain reserves for losses through the established allowance for doubtful accounts. Historically, such losses have been within our expectations. Refer to the "Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts" section within this Note for additional information on the accounting treatment of reserves for allowance for doubtful accounts. Major Customers CVS Health Corporation ("CVS") and OptumRx, are our only customers that individually account for at least 10 percent of revenue and gross trade receivables. These customers are primarily serviced through our Pharmaceutical segment. The following table summarizes historical percent of revenue and gross trade receivables from CVS and OptumRx: Percent of Revenue Percent of Gross Trade Receivables at June 30 2019 2018 2017 2019 2018 CVS 26 % 25 % 23 % 24 % 22 % OptumRx 13 % 11 % 11 % 4 % 4 % We have entered into agreements with group purchasing organizations (“GPOs”) which act as purchasing agents that negotiate vendor contracts on behalf of their members. Vizient, Inc. and Premier, Inc. are our two largest GPO member relationships in terms of revenue. Sales to members of these two GPOs collectively accounted for 22 percent , 22 percent and 21 percent of revenue for fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Our trade receivable balances are with individual members of the GPO, and therefore no significant concentration of credit risk exists with these types of arrangements. Inventories A substantial portion of our inventories ( 56 percent at both June 30, 2019 and 2018 ) are valued at the lower of cost, using the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method, or market. These inventories are included within the core pharmaceutical distribution facilities of our Pharmaceutical segment (“distribution facilities”) and are primarily merchandise inventories. The LIFO method presumes that the most recent inventory purchases are the first items sold, so LIFO helps us better match current costs and revenue. We believe that the average cost method of inventory valuation provides a reasonable approximation of the current cost of replacing inventory within the distribution facilities. As such, the LIFO reserve is the difference between (a) inventory at the lower of LIFO cost or market and (b) inventory at replacement cost determined using the average cost method of inventory valuation. If we had used the average cost method of inventory valuation for all inventory within the distribution facilities, the value of our inventories would not have changed in fiscal 2019 or 2018 because inventories valued at LIFO were $230 million and $92 million higher than the average cost value at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. We do not record inventories in excess of replacement cost. As such, we did not record a LIFO reserve in fiscal 2019 or 2018 . Our remaining inventory that is not valued at the lower of LIFO or market is stated at the lower of cost, using the first-in, first-out method, or net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. Inventories presented in the consolidated balance sheets are net of reserves for excess and obsolete inventory which were $171 million and $147 million at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. We reserve for inventory obsolescence using estimates based on historical experience, historical and projected sales trends, specific categories of inventory, age and expiration dates of on-hand inventory and manufacturer return policies. Cash Discounts Manufacturer cash discounts are recorded as a component of inventory cost and recognized as a reduction of cost of products sold as inventory is sold. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Property and equipment held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell. When certain events or changes in operating conditions occur, an impairment assessment may be performed on the recoverability of the carrying amounts. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, including capital lease assets which are depreciated over the terms of their respective leases. We generally use the following range of useful lives for our property and equipment categories: buildings and improvements— 3 to 39 years ; machinery and equipment— 3 to 20 years ; and furniture and fixtures— 3 to 7 years . We recorded depreciation and amortization expense of $455 million , $446 million and $314 million for fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The following table presents the components of property and equipment, net at June 30: (in millions) 2019 2018 Land, building and improvements $ 1,992 $ 2,115 Machinery and equipment 3,038 3,006 Furniture and fixtures 138 139 Total property and equipment, at cost 5,168 5,260 Accumulated depreciation and amortization (2,812 ) (2,773 ) Property and equipment, net $ 2,356 $ 2,487 Repairs and maintenance expenditures are expensed as incurred. Interest on long-term projects is capitalized using a rate that approximates the weighted-average interest rate on long-term obligations, which was 5 percent at June 30, 2019 . The amount of capitalized interest was immaterial for all periods presented. Business Combinations The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, including identifiable intangible assets, are recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. We base the fair values of identifiable intangible assets on detailed valuations that require management to make significant judgments, estimates and assumptions. Critical estimates and assumptions include: expected future cash flows for customer relationships, trade names and other identifiable intangible assets; discount rates that reflect the risk factors associated with future cash flows; and estimates of useful lives. When an acquisition involves contingent consideration, we recognize a liability equal to the fair value of the contingent consideration obligation at the acquisition date. The estimate of fair value of a contingent consideration obligation requires subjective assumptions to be made regarding future business results, discount rates, discount periods and probabilities assigned to various potential business result scenarios. See Note 2 for additional information regarding our acquisitions. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Purchased goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment annually or when indicators of impairment exist. Purchased goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually. Qualitative factors are first assessed to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. There is an option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to performing the quantitative goodwill impairment test. We have elected to bypass the qualitative assessment for our annual goodwill impairment test in the current year. The quantitative goodwill impairment test involves a comparison of the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to the respective carrying amount. Goodwill impairment testing involves judgment, including the identification of reporting units, qualitative evaluation of events and circumstances to determine if it is more likely than not that an impairment exists, and, if necessary, the estimation of the fair value of the applicable reporting unit. Our qualitative evaluation considers the weight of evidence and significance of all identified events and circumstances and most relevant drivers of fair value, both positive and negative, in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. We have two operating segments, which are the same as our reportable segments: Pharmaceutical and Medical. These operating segments are comprised of divisions (components), for which discrete financial information is available. Components are aggregated into reporting units for purposes of goodwill impairment testing to the extent that they share similar economic characteristics. Our reporting units are: Pharmaceutical operating segment (excluding our Nuclear and Precision Health Solutions division); Nuclear and Precision Health Solutions division; Medical operating segment (excluding our Cardinal Health at-Home Solutions division) (“Medical Unit”); and Cardinal Health at-Home Solutions division. Our Nuclear and Precision Health Solutions division was formerly referred to as our Nuclear Pharmacy Services division and our Cardinal Health at-Home Solutions division was formerly referred to as our Cardinal Health at Home division. Fair value can be determined using market, income or cost-based approaches. Our determination of estimated fair value of the reporting units is based on a combination of the income-based and market-based approaches. Under the income-based approach, we use a discounted cash flow model in which cash flows anticipated over several future periods, plus a terminal value at the end of that time horizon, are discounted to their present value using an appropriate risk-adjusted rate of return. We use our internal forecasts to estimate future cash flows, which we believe are consistent with those of a market participant, and include an estimate of long-term growth rates based on our most recent views of the long-term outlook for each reporting unit. Actual results may differ materially from those used in our forecasts. We use discount rates that are commensurate with the risks and uncertainty inherent in the respective reporting units and in our internally-developed forecasts. Discount rates used in our reporting unit valuations ranged from 8.5 percent to 11.5 percent . Under the market-based approach, we determine fair value by comparing our reporting units to similar businesses or guideline companies whose securities are actively traded in public markets. We also use the guideline transaction method to determine fair value based on pricing multiples derived from the sale of companies that are similar to our reporting units. To further confirm fair value, we compare the aggregate fair value of our reporting units to our total market capitalization. Estimating the fair value of reporting units requires the use of estimates and significant judgments that are based on a number of factors including forecasted operating results. The use of alternate estimates and assumptions or changes in the industry or peer groups could materially affect the determination of fair value for each reporting unit and potentially result in goodwill impairment. We performed annual impairment testing in fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 and with the exception of our Medical Unit in fiscal 2018, concluded that there were no impairments of goodwill as the estimated fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value. As discussed further in Note 4 of the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements," during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 we recognized a $1.4 billion goodwill impairment charge related to our Medical Unit, which is included in impairments and loss on disposal of assets in our consolidated statements of earnings. There was no tax benefit related to this goodwill impairment charge. The impairment test for indefinite-lived intangibles other than goodwill (primarily IPR&D) involves first assessing qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. If so, then a quantitative test is performed to compare the estimated fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to the respective asset's carrying amount. Our qualitative evaluation requires the use of estimates and significant judgments and considers the weight of evidence and significance of all identified events and circumstances and most relevant drivers of fair value, both positive and negative, in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. Intangible assets with finite lives, primarily customer relationships; trademarks, trade names and patents; and developed technology, are amortized using a combination of straight-line and accelerated methods based on the expected cash flows from the asset over their estimated useful lives. We review intangible assets with finite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Determining whether an impairment loss occurred requires a comparison of the carrying amount to the sum of the future forecasted undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. Actual results may differ materially from those used in our forecasts. Assets Held for Sale We classify assets and liabilities (the “disposal group”) as held for sale when management commits to a plan to sell the disposal group in its present condition and at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value. We also consider whether an active program to locate a buyer has been initiated and if it is probable that the sale will occur within one year without significant changes to the plan to sell. Upon classification of the disposal group as held for sale, we test the assets for impairment and cease related depreciation and amortization. Investments Investments in non-marketable equity securities are accounted for under the fair value, equity or net asset value method of accounting and are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. For equity securities without a readily determinable fair value, we use the fair value measurement alternative and measure the securities at cost less impairment, if any, including adjustments for observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer. For investments in which we can exercise significant influence but do not control, we use the equity method of accounting. Our share of the earnings and losses are recorded in other income, net in the consolidated statements of earnings. We monitor our investments for impairment by considering factors such as the operating performance of the investment and current economic and market conditions. Vendor Reserves In the ordinary course of business, our vendors may dispute deductions taken against payments otherwise due to them or assert other disputes. These disputes are researched and resolved based upon the findings of the research performed. At any given time, there are outstanding items in various stages of research and resolution. In determining appropriate reserves for areas of exposure with our vendors, we assess historical experience and current outstanding claims. We have established various levels of reserves based on the type of claim and status of review. Though the claim types are relatively consistent, we periodically refine our methodology by updating the reserve estimate percentages to reflect actual historical experience. The ultimate outcome of certain claims may be different than our original estimate and may require an adjustment. Adjustments to vendor reserves are included in cost of products sold. In addition, the reserve balance will fluctuate due to variations of outstanding claims from period-to-period, timing of settlements and specific vendor issues, such as bankruptcies. Vendor reserves were $53 million and $45 million at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, excluding third-party returns. See Third-Party Returns section within this Note for a description of third-party returns. Distribution Services Agreement and Other Vendor Fees Our Pharmaceutical segment recognizes fees received from distribution services agreements and other fees received from vendors related to the purchase or distribution of the vendors’ inventory when those fees have been earned and we are entitled to payment. Since the benefit provided to a vendor is related to the purchase and distribution of the vendor’s inventory, we recognize the fees as a reduction in the carrying value of the inventory that generated the fees, and as such, a reduction of cost of products sold in our consolidated statements of earnings when the inventory is sold. Loss Contingencies and Self-Insurance We accrue for contingencies related to disputes, litigation and regulatory matters if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We develop and periodically update reserve estimates for Cordis IVC claims, including those received to date and expected to be received in the future and related costs. To project future Cordis IVC claim costs, we use a methodology based largely on recent experience, including claim filing rates, estimated indemnity severity by claim type, sales data and estimated defense costs. We also self-insure for employee healthcare, general liability, certain product liability matters, auto liability, property and workers' compensation. Self-insurance accruals include an estimate for expected settlements or pending claims, defense costs, administrative fees, claim adjustment costs and an estimate for claims incurred but not reported. Because these matters are inherently unpredictable and unfavorable developments or resolutions can occur, assessing contingencies and other liabilities is highly subjective and requires judgments about future events. We regularly review contingencies and our self-insurance accruals to determine whether our accruals and related disclosures are adequate. Any adjustments for changes in reserves are recorded in the period in which the change in estimate occurs. The amount of ultimate loss may differ from these estimates. We recognize these estimated loss contingencies, income from favorable resolution of litigation and certain defense costs in litigation (recoveries)/charges in our consolidated statements of earnings. See Note 8 for additional information regarding loss contingencies and product liability lawsuits. Income Taxes We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in the respective jurisdictions in which we operate . We assess the realizability of deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and provide a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that at least a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The realizability of deferred tax assets depends on our ability to generate sufficient taxable income within the carryback or carryforward periods provided for in the tax law for each applicable tax jurisdiction and also considers all available positive and negative evidence. Deferred taxes for non-U.S. liabilities are not provided on the unremitted earnings of subsidiaries outside of the United States when it is expected that these earnings are indefinitely reinvested. We operate in a complex multinational tax environment and are subject to tax treaty arrangements and transfer pricing guidelines for intercompany transactions that are subject to interpretation. Uncertainty in a tax position may arise as tax laws are subject to interpretation. Tax benefits from uncertain tax positions are recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination of the technical merits of the position, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amoun t of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement. For tax benefits that do not qualify for recognition, we recognize a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. See Note 7 for additional information regarding income taxes. Other Accrued Liabilities Other accrued liabilities represent various current obligations, including certain accrued operating expenses and taxes payable. Noncontrolling Interests and Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests Noncontrolling interests represent the portion of net earnings, comprehensive income and net assets that is not attributable to Cardinal Health, Inc. The redeemable noncontrolling interests relate to our prior ownership interest in naviHealth Holdings, LLC ("naviHealth"), which we acquired during fiscal 2016. The redeemable noncontrolling interests were redeemable at the option of the third-party noncontrolling interest holders at any time after the two-year anniversary of the closing, or earlier if a trigger event occurred. As such, the noncontrolling interests were presented as redeemable noncontrolling interests in our June 30, 2018 consolidated balance sheets. The noncontrolling interests were adjusted each period for net earnings and dividends attributable to the noncontrolling interests and changes in the noncontrolling ownership interests, if any. Changes in the carrying value of the noncontrolling interests related to a change in the redemption value were recorded through retained earnings and did not affect net earnings attributable to Cardinal Health, Inc. See Note 12 for additional information regarding redeemable noncontrolling interests. In August 2018, we sold our 98 percent ownership interest in naviHealth. For more information on this divestiture see Note 2 . Share-Based Compensation Share-based compensation provided to employees is recognized in the consolidated statements of earnings based on the grant date fair value of the awards. The fair value of stock options is determined on the grant date using a lattice valuation model. The fair value of restricted share units and performance share units is determined by the grant date market price of our common shares. The compensation expense associated with nonvested performance share units is dependent on our periodic assessment of the probability of the targets being achieved and our estimate, which may vary over time, of the number of shares that ultimately will be issued. The compensation expense recognized for share-based awards is net of estimated forfeitures and is recognized ratably over the service period of the awards. All income tax effects of share-based awards are recognized in the statement of earnings as awards vest or are settled. We classify share-based compensation expense in distribution, selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses to correspond with the same line item as the majority of the cash compensation paid to employees. If awards are modified in connection with a restructuring activity, the incremental share-based compensation expense is classified in restructuring and employee severance. See Note 16 for additional information regarding share-based compensation. Dividends We paid cash dividends per common share of $1.91 , $1.85 and $1.80 in fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Revenue Recognition We recognize revenue in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for the transfer of goods or services to customers. Revenue in both segments is primarily related to the distribution of pharmaceutical and medical products, which we recognize at a point in time when title transfers to customers and we have no further obligation to provide services related to such merchandise. Service revenues are recognized over the period that services are provided to the customer. Revenues derived from services are not material for either segment for all periods presented. We are generally the principal in a transaction, therefore our revenue is primarily recorded on a gross basis. When we are a principal in a transaction, we have determined that we control the ability to direct the use of the product or service prior to transfer to a customer, are primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the product or service to our customer, have discretion in establishing prices, and ultimately control the transfer of the product or services provided to the customer. Sales Returns and Allowances Revenue is recorded net of sales returns and allowances. Revenues are measured based on the amount of consideration that we expect to receive, reduced by estimates for return allowances, discounts, rebates and other variable consideration. Sales returns are recorded based on estimates using historical data. Our customer return policies generally require that the product be physically returned, subject to restocking fees. We only allow customers to return products for credit in a condition suitable to be added back to inventory and resold at full value, or returned to vendors for credit (“merchantable product”). Product returns are generally consistent throughout the year and typically are not specific to any particular product or customer. We accrue for estimated sales returns and allowances at the time of sale based upon historical customer return trends, margin rates and processing costs. Our accrual for sales returns is reflected as a reduction of revenue and cost of products sold for the sales price and cost, respectively. At both June 30, 2019 and 2018 , the accrual for estimated sales returns and allowances was $479 million , the impact of which is reflected in trade receivables, net and inventories, net in the consolidated balance sheets. Sales returns and allowances were $2.2 billion , $2.4 billion and $2.3 billion , for fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Third-Party Returns We generally do not accept non-merchantable pharmaceutical product returns from our customers, so many of our customers return non-merchantable pharmaceutical products to the manufacturer through third parties. Since our customers generally do not have a direct relationship with manufacturers, our vendors pass the value of such returns to us (usually in the form of an accounts payable deduction). We, in turn, pass the value received, less an administrative fee, to our customer. In certain instances, we pass the estimated value of the return to our customer prior to our receipt of the value from the vendor. Although we believe we have satisfactory protections, we could be subject to claims from customers or vendors if our administration of this overall process was deficient in some respect or our contractual terms with vendors are in conflict with our contractual terms with our customers. We have maintained reserves for some of these situations based on their nature and our historical experience with their resolution. Shipping and Handling Shipping and handling costs are primarily included in SG&A expenses in our consolidated statements of earnings and include all delivery expenses as well as all costs to prepare the product for shipment to the end customer. Shipping and handling costs were $622 million , $543 million and $496 million , for fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Restructuring and Employee Severance Restructuring activities are programs that are not part of the ongoing operations of our underlying business, such as closing and consolidating facilities, changing the way we manufacture or distribute our products, moving manufacturing of a product to another location, changes in production or business process outsourcing or insourcing, employee severance (including rationalizing headcount or other significant changes in personnel) and realigning operations ( |

Acquisitions | 2. Acquisitions and Divestitures Acquisitions While we have completed several acquisitions d uring fiscal 2019 , the pro forma results of operations and the results of operations for acquired businesses since the acquisition dates have not been separately disclosed because the effects were not significant compared to the consolidated financial statements, individually or in the aggregate. The cash paid for these acquisitions, net of cash acquired was $ 82 million . Patient Recovery Business On July 29, 2017, we acquired the Patient Care, Deep Vein Thrombosis, and Nutritional Insufficiency businesses (the "Patient Recovery Business") from Medtronic plc for $6.1 billion in cash. The acquisition further expanded the Medical segment's portfolio of self-manufactured products. Transaction and integration costs associated with the acquisition of the Patient Recovery Business were $75 million and $109 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. These costs are included in amortization and other acquisition-related costs in the consolidated statement of earnings. Fair Value of Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed The allocation of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the acquisition of the Patient Recovery Business was finalized during the three months ended September 30, 2018, resulting in goodwill of $3.3 billion . There were no significant adjustments to the allocation of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the Patient Recovery Business acquisition from those disclosed in our fiscal 2018 Form 10-K. The valuation of identifiable intangible assets utilizes significant unobservable inputs and thus represents a Level 3 nonrecurring fair value measurement. The estimated fair value of the identifiable intangible assets was determined using income-based approaches, which includes market participant expectations of the cash flows that an asset could generate over its economic life, discounted back to present value using an appropriate rate of return. The weighted- average discount rate used to arrive at the present value of the identifiable intangible assets was 8.0 percent, and considers the inherent risk of each intangible asset relative to the internal rate of return and weighted-average cost of capital. The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date for the Patient Recovery Business: (in millions) Patient Recovery Business Identifiable intangible assets: Customer relationships (1) $ 1,733 Trade names (2) 187 Developed technology and other (3) 732 Total identifiable intangible assets acquired 2,652 Cash and equivalents 22 Inventories 420 Prepaid expenses and other 252 Property and equipment, net 739 Other accrued liabilities (322 ) Deferred income taxes and other liabilities (982 ) Total identifiable net assets acquired 2,781 Goodwill 3,299 Total net assets acquired $ 6,080 (1) The range of useful lives for customer relationships is 10 to 18 years. (2) The useful life of trade names is 15 years. (3) The useful life of developed technology is 15 years. Divestitures China Divestiture In February 2018, we sold our pharmaceutical and medical products distribution business in China ("China distribution business") for proceeds of $861 million (after adjusting for third party indebtedness and preliminary transaction adjustments) to Shanghai Pharmaceuticals Holding Co., Ltd. The proceeds are not reflective of tax obligations due in connection with the sale, for which we have recorded a liability of $59 million . The purchase price was subject to adjustment based on working capital requirements as set forth in the definitive agreement, for which there were no significant changes in fiscal 2019. We determined that the sale of the China distribution business did not meet the criteria to be classified as discontinued operations. The China distribution business primarily operated within our Pharmaceutical segment, and a smaller portion operated within our Medical segment. During the fiscal year ended 2018, we recognized a pre-tax loss of $41 million related to this divestiture. naviHealth In August 2018, we sold our 98 percent ownership interest in naviHealth to investor entities controlled by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice in exchange for cash proceeds of $737 million (after adjusting for certain fees and expenses) and a 44 percent equity interest in a partnership that owns 100 percent of the equity interest of naviHealth. We also have certain call rights to reacquire naviHealth. Refer to Note 5 for further discussion regarding this investment. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 , we recognized a pre-tax gain of $508 million related to this divestiture in impairments and (gain)/loss on disposal of assets in our consolidated statement of earnings. This gain includes our initial recognition of an equity method investment for $358 million and the derecognition of redeemable noncontrolling interests of $12 million . The fiscal 2019 tax expense as a result of this transaction was $130 million . We determined that the sale of the naviHealth business did not meet the criteria to be classified as discontinued operations. The naviHealth business operated within our Medical segment. |

Restructuring and Employee Severance | 3. Restructuring and Employee Severance The following tables summarize restructuring and employee severance costs: (in millions) 2019 2018 2017 Employee-related costs (1) $ 95 $ 34 $ 51 Facility exit and other costs (2) 30 142 5 Total restructuring and employee severance $ 125 $ 176 $ 56 (1) Employee-related costs primarily consist of termination benefits provided to employees who have been involuntarily terminated, duplicate payroll costs and retention bonuses incurred during transition periods. (2) Facility exit and other costs primarily consist of product distribution and lease contract termination costs, lease costs associated with vacant facilities, accelerated depreciation, equipment relocation costs, project consulting fees, costs associated with restructuring our delivery of information technology infrastructure services and certain other divestiture-related costs. In early fiscal 2019, we began implementing certain enterprise-wide cost-savings measures, which we expect will reduce our future operating expenses. As a result of these measures, we incurred pre-tax restructuring related costs of $92 million during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, which are reflected in restructuring and employee severance in the consolidated statements of earnings. In fiscal 2018, we entered into an agreement to transition the distribution of our Medical segment's surgeon gloves in certain international markets from a third-party distribution arrangement to a direct distribution model. The costs associated with this restructuring included $125 million , on a pre-tax basis, in contract termination costs that were paid during fiscal 2018. These costs are reflected in restructuring and employee severance in the consolidated statements of earnings during the fiscal year ended 2018. The following table summarizes activity related to liabilities associated with restructuring and employee severance: (in millions) Employee- Related Costs Facility Exit and Other Costs Total Balance at June 30, 2017 $ 41 $ — $ 41 Additions 19 131 150 Payments and other adjustments (36 ) (127 ) (163 ) Balance at June 30, 2018 24 4 28 Additions 84 8 92 Payments and other adjustments (44 ) (4 ) (48 ) Balance at June 30, 2019 $ 64 $ 8 $ 72 |

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill The following table summarizes the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by segment and in total: (in millions) Pharmaceutical (1) Medical (2) Total Balance at June 30, 2017 $ 2,939 $ 4,282 $ 7,221 Goodwill acquired, net of purchase price adjustments 1 3,342 3,343 Foreign currency translation adjustments and other 28 6 34 Goodwill divested with the sale of our China distribution business (347 ) (54 ) (401 ) naviHealth goodwill reclassified to assets held for sale — (509 ) (509 ) Impairment — (1,372 ) (1,372 ) Balance at June 30, 2018 2,621 5,695 8,316 Goodwill acquired, net of purchase price adjustments 45 7 52 Foreign currency translation adjustments and other (3 ) 13 10 Balance at June 30, 2019 $ 2,663 $ 5,715 $ 8,378 (1) At June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Pharmaceutical segment accumulated goodwill impairment loss was $829 million . (2) At June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Medical segment accumulated goodwill impairment loss was $1.4 billion . Fiscal 2018 The increase in the Medical segment goodwill during fiscal 2018 is primarily due to the Patient Recovery Business acquisition. Goodwill recognized in connection with the Patient Recovery Business acquisition primarily represents the expected benefits from certain synergies of integrating the business, the existing workforce of the acquired entity, and the expected growth from new customers. See Note 2 for further discussion of this acquisition. In conjunction with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for fiscal 2018, we completed our annual quantitative goodwill impairment test, which we perform annually in the fourth quarter. Using a combination of income and market-based approaches (using a discount rate of 8.5 percent ), the carrying value exceeded the fair value and resulted in an impairment charge of $1.4 billion related to our Medical Unit, which is included in impairments and loss on disposal of assets in our consolidated statements of earnings. Our fair value estimates utilize significant unobservable inputs and thus represent Level 3 fair value measurements. The impairment was primarily driven by inventory and cost challenges within our Cordis business which furthered in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. This impairment charge did not impact our liquidity, cash flows from operations, or compliance with debt covenants. There was no tax benefit related to the goodwill impairment charge. The goodwill balance for our Medical Unit, after recognizing the impairment, was $4.3 billion at June 30, 2018. During fiscal 2018, goodwill was also reduced by $401 million and $509 million in connection with the sale of our China distribution business and reclassification of naviHealth's assets and liabilities to held for sale, respectively. See Note 2 for further discussion of this divestiture and assets held for sale. Other Intangible Assets The following tables summarize other intangible assets by class at June 30: 2019 (in millions) Gross Intangible Accumulated Amortization Net Intangible Weighted- Average Remaining Amortization Period (Years) Indefinite-life intangibles: IPR&D, trademarks and other $ 22 $ — $ 22 N/A Total indefinite-life intangibles 22 — 22 N/A Definite-life intangibles: Customer relationships 3,562 1,517 2,045 14 Trademarks, trade names and patents 672 295 377 14 Developed technology and other 1,602 616 986 12 Total definite-life intangibles 5,836 2,428 3,408 13 Total other intangible assets $ 5,858 $ 2,428 $ 3,430 N/A 2018 (in millions) Gross Intangible Accumulated Amortization Net Intangible Indefinite-life intangibles: IPR&D, trademarks and other $ 62 $ — $ 62 Total indefinite-life intangibles 62 — 62 Definite-life intangibles: Customer relationships 3,513 1,191 2,322 Trademarks, trade names and patents 667 246 421 Developed technology and other 1,562 454 1,108 Total definite-life intangibles 5,742 1,891 3,851 Total other intangible assets $ 5,804 $ 1,891 $ 3,913 Total amortization of intangible assets was $531 million , $574 million and $395 million for fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The estimated annual amortization for intangible assets for fiscal 2020 through 2024 is as follows: $509 million , $442 million , $408 million , $358 million and $329 million . During fiscal 2018, other intangible assets were reduced by $62 million and $133 million in connection with the sale of our China distribution business and reclassification of naviHealth's assets and liabilities to held for sale, respectively. |

Investments | 5. Investments In connection with the naviHealth divestiture discussed in Note 2 , we obtained a 44 percent equity interest in a partnership that owns 100 percent of the equity interest of naviHealth. We accounted for this investment initially at its fair value using Level 3 unobservable inputs based on expected sales proceeds following a competitive bidding process. We initially recognized a $358 million equity method investment. We are accounting for our equity interest in naviHealth using the equity method of accounting on a one-month reporting lag. The impact of our proportionate share of naviHealth's results was a loss of $9 million for fiscal 2019. Upon the divestiture closing, we received a non-cash distribution of $14 million in the form of the partnership's payment for certain of our divestiture transaction costs directly to the applicable third-party. At June 30, 2019 the carrying value of this investment was $334 million . |

Long-Term Obligations and Other Short-Term Borrowings The following table summarizes long-term obligations and other short-term borrowings at June 30: (in millions) (1) 2019 2018 1.948% Notes due 2019 $ — $ 998 2.4% Notes due 2019 450 448 4.625% Notes due 2020 508 514 2.616% Notes due 2022 1,079 1,143 3.2% Notes due 2022 247 243 Floating Rate Notes due 2022 340 348 3.2% Notes due 2023 551 525 3.079% Notes due 2024 781 742 3.5% Notes due 2024 402 390 3.75% Notes due 2025 494 460 3.41% Notes due 2027 1,318 1,340 4.6% Notes due 2043 346 346 4.5% Notes due 2044 342 342 4.9% Notes due 2045 445 445 4.368% Notes due 2047 594 594 7.0% Debentures due 2026 124 124 Other obligations 10 11 Total 8,031 9,013 Less: current portion of long-term obligations and other short-term borrowings 452 1,001 Long-term obligations, less current portion $ 7,579 $ 8,012 (1) Maturities are presented on a calendar year basis. Maturities of existing long-term obligations and other short-term borrowings for fiscal 2020 through 2024 and thereafter are as follows: $452 million , $512 million , $1.7 billion , $552 million , $782 million and $4.1 billion . Long-Term Debt All the notes represent unsecured obligations of Cardinal Health, Inc. and rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The 7.0% Debentures represent unsecured obligations of Allegiance Corporation (a wholly-owned subsidiary), which Cardinal Health, Inc. has guaranteed. None of these obligations are subject to a sinking fund and the Allegiance obligations are not redeemable prior to maturity. Interest is paid pursuant to the terms of the obligations. These notes are effectively subordinated to the liabilities of our subsidiaries, including trade payables of $21.5 billion . In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, we repurchased $67 million of the 2.616% Notes due 2022, $1 million of the 3.2% Notes due 2022, $8 million of the Floating Rate Notes due 2022, and $24 million of the 3.41% Notes due 2027 for a total of $100 million . The repurchases were paid for with available cash. We also paid off the 1.948% Notes due 2019 as they became due with available cash. In June 2018, we repaid the full principal of the 1.95% Notes due 2018 at maturity for $550 million . In July 2017, we redeemed the 1.7% Notes due 2018 early in full with a portion of the proceeds from the June 2017 issuance for $400 million . If we undergo a change of control, as defined in the notes, and if the notes receive specified ratings below investment grade by each of Standard & Poors Ratings Services, Moody’s Investors Services and Fitch Ratings, any holder of the notes, excluding the debentures, can require with respect to the notes owned by such holder, or we can offer, to repurchase the notes at 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. Other Financing Arrangements In addition to cash and equivalents and operating cash flow, other sources of liquidity include a $2.0 billion commercial paper program backed by a $2.0 billion revolving credit facility. We also have a $1.0 billion committed receivables sales facility. In June 2019, we renewed our $2.0 billion revolving credit facility. As part of the renewal of our revolving credit facility, as of the end of any calendar quarter, our maximum consolidated net leverage ratio may be no more than 4.25-to-1. The maximum permitted ratio will reduce to 4.00-to-1 in September 2019, and to 3.75-to-1 in March 2021 and thereafter. As of June 30, 2019 , we were in compliance with this financial covenant. In November 2018, we increased the maximum consolidated leverage ratio permitted under our committed receivables facilities to provide that, as of the end of any calendar quarter, our maximum consolidated leverage ratio may be no more than 4.25-to-1. The maximum permitted ratio will reduce to 4.00-to-1 in September 2019, to 3.75-to-1 in March 2020 and to 3.25-to-1 in September 2020. As of June 30, 2019 , we were in compliance with this financial covenant. In November 2016, we renewed our committed receivables sales facility program through Cardinal Health Funding, LLC (“CHF”) through November 1, 2019. CHF was organized for the sole purpose of buying receivables and selling undivided interests in those receivables to third-party purchasers. Although consolidated with Cardinal Health, Inc. in accordance with GAAP, CHF is a separate legal entity from Cardinal Health, Inc. and from our subsidiary that sells receivables to CHF. CHF is designed to be a special purpose, bankruptcy-remote entity whose assets are available solely to satisfy the claims of its creditors. We intend to renew our committed receivables sales facility program in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. At June 30, 2019 , we had no amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility; however, availability was reduced by outstanding letters of credit of $24 million at both June 30, 2019 and 2018 . We also had no amounts outstanding under the committed receivables sales facility program; however, availability was reduced by outstanding standby letters of credit of $30 million and $34 million at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. Under our commercial paper program we had a maximum amount outstanding of $785 million and an average daily amount outstanding of $15 million during fiscal 2019 . We had no amounts outstanding under the commercial paper program as of June 30, 2019 . We also maintain other short-term credit facilities and an unsecured line of credit that allowed for borrowings up to $9 million and $8 million at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. The $10 million and $11 million balance of other obligations at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, consisted of short-term borrowings and capital leases. In fiscal 2018 we sold our China distribution business, including its debt which was $378 million as of June 30, 2017. See Note 2 for further discussion of this divestiture. |

Income Taxes | 7. Income Taxes Earnings/(loss) before Income Taxes and Provision for Income Taxes The following table summarizes earnings/(loss) before income taxes: (in millions) 2019 2018 2017 U.S. operations $ 1,478 $ 391 $ 1,772 Non-U.S. operations 273 (619 ) 152 Earnings/(loss) before income taxes $ 1,751 $ (228 ) $ 1,924 The following table summarizes the components of provision for/(benefit from) income taxes: (in millions) 2019 2018 2017 Current: Federal $ 295 $ 341 $ 273 State and local 89 41 10 Non-U.S. 85 143 56 Total current $ 469 $ 525 $ 339 Deferred: Federal $ (28 ) $ (1,003 ) $ 258 State and local (37 ) 16 37 Non-U.S. (18 ) (25 ) (4 ) Total deferred (83 ) (1,012 ) 291 Provision for/(benefit from) income taxes $ 386 $ (487 ) $ 630 Effective Tax Rate The following table presents a reconciliation of the provision based on the federal statutory income tax rate to our effective income tax rate: 2019 (1) 2018 (2) 2017 (1) Provision at Federal statutory rate 21.0 % 28.1 % 35.0 % State and local income taxes, net of federal benefit 0.9 (16.0 ) 1.0 Tax effect of foreign operations (0.7 ) (48.4 ) (7.3 ) Nondeductible/nontaxable items 2.5 (10.2 ) 0.2 Goodwill impairment — (124.7 ) — Tax Act (0.8 ) 410.9 — Change in valuation allowances 4.5 (76.9 ) 7.7 Foreign tax credits (1.0 ) 27.3 (1.6 ) China tax related to divestiture — (25.8 ) — Legal entity reorganization (3.6 ) 71.4 — Other (0.7 ) (21.9 ) (2.3 ) Effective income tax rate 22.1 % 213.8 % 32.7 % (1) The effective income tax rate for fiscal 2019 and 2017 represents an income tax expense tax rate. (2) The effective income tax rate for fiscal 2018 represents an income tax benefit tax rate. The income tax expense rate in fiscal 2019 was 22.1% compared to an income tax benefit rate of 213.8% in fiscal 2018 and an income tax expense rate of 32.7% in fiscal 2017. Fluctuations in the effective tax rates are primarily due to fiscal 2018 net benefits from the enactment of the Tax Act, the impact of nondeductible goodwill impairment charge, and a benefit from a capital loss due to international legal entity reorganization. There were also changes in valuation allowances related to capital losses, credit carryforwards and net operating loss carryforwards in U.S. federal, U.S. state and international jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate has benefits from negotiated lower than statutory tax rates in select foreign jurisdictions which individually are not material to our effective tax rate but in aggregate have a favorable tax impact of approximately $40 million . On December 22, 2017, the United States enacted the Tax Act. The Tax Act made broad and comp lex changes to the U.S. tax code that affected fiscal 2018 and will incrementally affect our fiscal year 2019 financial results in several ways. First, the U.S. statutory tax rate in fiscal 2019 is reduced to 21.0% . Second, the Tax Act established new tax provisions that affected us beginning July 1, 2018 including, (1) eliminating the U.S. manufacturing deduction; (2) establishing new limitations on deductible interest expense and certain executive compensation; (3) eliminating the corporate alternative minimum tax; (4) creating the base erosion anti-abuse tax; (5) creating a new provision designed to tax global intangible low-tax income (“GILTI”) and allow for a deduction related to foreign derived intangible income ("FDII"); (6) generally eliminating U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries; and (7) changing rules related to uses and limitations of net operating loss carryforwards created in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017. Regarding the new GILTI tax rules, we elected to treat taxes due on future GILTI inclusions in U.S. taxable income as a current period expense when incurred. In accordance with SAB 118, we finalized our provisional estimates related to transitional tax benefits (i.e., remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities and the repatriation tax on undistributed foreign earnings) which did not have a significant impact on tax expense during fiscal 2019. Future adjustments to the financial statements may be necessary as final tax regulations, including issued and pending regulatory changes are issued. We will assess any impact as additional guidance is issued. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, the Company completed the final calculation of the U.S. repatriation tax after the issuance of final regulations by the U.S Treasury Department under section 965. After completion of the calculation and an overall review of the cash positions post-tax reform and business needs globally, the Company is changing its assertion on $309 million previously considered indefinitely reinvested as of June 30, 2018, which did not have a material impact on our provision for income taxes. As of June 30, 3019, foreign earnings of approximately $780 million are considered indefinitely reinvested for working capital and other offshore investment needs. The computation of tax required if those earnings are repatriated is not practicable. Deferred Income Taxes Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between financial reporting and tax reporting bases of assets and liabilities and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards for tax purposes. The following table presents the components of the deferred income tax assets and liabilities at June 30: (in millions) 2019 2018 Deferred income tax assets: Receivable basis difference $ 35 $ 41 Accrued liabilities 133 110 Share-based compensation 39 40 Loss and tax credit carryforwards 621 526 Deferred tax assets related to uncertain tax positions 30 30 Other 6 101 Total deferred income tax assets 864 848 Valuation allowance for deferred income tax assets (542 ) (412 ) Net deferred income tax assets $ 322 $ 436 Deferred income tax liabilities: Inventory basis differences $ (1,056 ) $ (1,103 ) Property-related (171 ) (176 ) Goodwill and other intangibles (808 ) (934 ) Total deferred income tax liabilities $ (2,035 ) $ (2,213 ) Net deferred income tax liability $ (1,713 ) $ (1,777 ) Deferred income tax assets and liabilities in the preceding table, after netting by taxing jurisdiction, are in the following captions in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30: (in millions) 2019 2018 Noncurrent deferred income tax asset (1) $ 36 $ 37 Noncurrent deferred income tax liability (2) (1,749 ) (1,814 ) Net deferred income tax liability $ (1,713 ) $ (1,777 ) (1) Included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. (2) Included in deferred income taxes and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. At June 30, 2019 we had gross federal, state and international loss and credit carryforwards of $463 million , $2.7 billion and $1.9 billion , respectively, the tax effect of which is an aggregate deferred tax asset of $621 million . Substantially all of these carryforwards are available for at least three years. Approximately $524 million of the valuation allowance at June 30, 2019 applies to certain federal, state and international loss carryforwards that, in our opinion, are more likely than not to expire unutilized. However, to the extent that tax benefits related to these carryforwards are realized in the future, the reduction in the valuation allowance would reduce income tax expense. Unrecognized Tax Benefits We had $456 million , $423 million and $417 million of unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The June 30, 2019 , 2018 and 2017 balances include $303 million , $262 million and $268 million , respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would have an impact on the effective tax rate. The remaining unrecognized tax benefits relate to tax positions for which ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty as to the timing of such deductibility. Recognition of these tax benefits would not affect our effective tax rate. We include the full amount of unrecognized tax benefits in deferred income taxes and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The following table presents a reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized tax benefits: (in millions) 2019 2018 2017 Balance at beginning of fiscal year $ 423 $ 417 $ 527 Additions for tax positions of the current year 24 15 29 Additions for tax positions of prior years (1) 39 141 23 Reductions for tax positions of prior years (5 ) (40 ) (8 ) Settlements with tax authorities (1) (25 ) (99 ) (154 ) Expiration of the statute of limitations (1) — (11 ) — Balance at end of fiscal year $ 456 $ 423 $ 417 (1) Included in fiscal 2018 additions for tax positions of prior years is $110 million related to exposures acquired as part of the Patient Recovery Business for which we are fully indemnified. Also for fiscal 2018 are settlements of $81 million related to the Patient Recovery Business as well as $11 million of statute expirations. It is reasonably possible that there could be a change in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months due to activities of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") or other taxing authorities, possible settlement of audit issues, reassessment of existing unrecognized tax benefits or the expiration of statutes of limitations. We estimate that the range of the possible change in unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months is a net decrease of $0 million to $15 million , exclusive of penalties and interest. We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. At June 30, 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , we had $122 million , $110 million and $99 million , respectively, accrued for the payment of interest and penalties. These balances are gross amounts before any tax benefits and are included in deferred income taxes and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. During fiscal 2019 , 2018, and 2017 we recognized $8 million , $8 million , and $12 million of expense for interest and penalties in income tax expense, respectively. Other Tax Matters We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various U.S. state and local jurisdictions, and various foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, we are subject to audit by taxing authorities for fiscal years 2008 through the current fiscal year. We are a party to a tax matters agreement with CareFusion Corporation ("CareFusion"), which has been acquired by Becton, Dickinson and Company. Under the tax matters agreement, CareFusion is obligated to indemnify us for certain tax exposures and transaction taxes prior to our fiscal 2010 spin-off of CareFusion. The indemnification receivable was $165 million and $151 million at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, and is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. As a result of the acquisition of the Patient Recovery Business, Medtronic plc is obligated to indemnify us for certain tax exposures and transaction taxes related to periods prior to the acquisition under the purchase agreement. The indemnification receivable was $22 million and $21 million at June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. |

Commitments, Contingent Liabilities and Litigation Commitments Operating Leases The future minimum rental payments for operating leases having initial or remaining non-cancelable lease terms in excess of one year at June 30, 2019 for fiscal 2020 through 2024 and thereafter are as follows: $126 million , $100 million , $76 million , $54 million , $33 million and $94 million . Rental expense relating to operating leases was $153 million , $172 million and $159 million in fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Sublease rental income was immaterial for all periods presented. Generic Sourcing Venture with CVS Health Corporation ("CVS Health") Red Oak Sourcing, LLC ("Red Oak Sourcing") is a U.S.-based generic pharmaceutical sourcing venture with CVS Health for an initial term through June 2024. Red Oak Sourcing negotiates generic pharmaceutical supply contracts on behalf of its participants. Due to the achievement of predetermined milestones, we are required to make quarterly payments of $ 45.6 million to CVS Health for the initial term. Contingencies New York Opioid Stewardship Act In April 2018, the State of New York passed a budget which included the Opioid Stewardship Act (the "OSA"). The OSA created an aggregate $100 million annual assessment on all manufacturers and distributors licensed to sell or distribute opioids in New York. Under the OSA, each licensed manufacturer and distributor would be required to pay a portion of the assessment based on its ratable share, as determined by the state, of the total morphine milligram equivalents sold or distributed in New York during the applicable calendar year, beginning in 2017. In October 2018, we received notices from the New York Department of Health of our estimated payment amount for calendar year 2017. In December 2018, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled that the OSA is unconstitutional and enjoined its enforcement (the "Ruling"). In January 2019, the State filed notice of its intent to appeal the Ruling. In April 2019, the State, among other things, amended the OSA so that the assessment would only cover opioid sales in 2017 and 2018, subject to the State's pending appeal of the Ruling. We accrue contingencies if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be estimated. At June 30, 2019, we have no amounts accrued for the OSA because we do not believe it is probable that a liability has been incurred. Legal Proceedings We become involved from time to time in disputes, litigation and regulatory matters. We may be named from time to time in qui tam actions initiated by private third parties. In such actions, the private parties purport to act on behalf of federal or state governments, allege that false claims have been submitted for payment by the government and may receive an award if their claims are successful. After a private party has filed a qui tam action, the government must investigate the private party's claim and determine whether to intervene in and take control over the litigation. These actions may remain under seal while the government makes this determination. If the government declines to intervene, the private party may nonetheless continue to pursue the litigation on his or her own purporting to act on behalf of the government . From time to time, we become aware through employees, internal audits or other parties of possible compliance matters, such as complaints or concerns relating to accounting, internal accounting controls, financial reporting, auditing, or other ethical matters or relating to compliance with laws such as healthcare fraud and abuse, anti-corruption or anti-bribery laws. When we become aware of such possible compliance matters, we investigate internally and take appropriate corrective action. In addition, from time to time, we receive subpoenas or requests for information from various federal or state agencies relating to our business or to the business of a customer, supplier or other industry participants. Internal investigations, subpoenas or requests for information could lead to the assertion of claims or the commencement of legal proceedings against us or result in sanctions. From time to time, we determine that products we manufacture or market do not meet our specifications, regulatory requirements, or published standards. When we or a regulatory agency identify a potential quality or regulatory issue, we investigate and take appropriate corrective action. Such actions can lead to product recalls, costs to repair or replace affected products, temporary interruptions in product sales, action by regulators and product liability claims and lawsuits, including class actions. Even absent an identified regulatory or quality issue or product recall, we can become subject to product liability claims and lawsuits. We accrue for contingencies related to disputes, litigation and regulatory matters if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Because these matters are inherently unpredictable and unfavorable developments or resolutions can occur, assessing contingencies is highly subjective and requires judgments about future events. We regularly review contingencies to determine whether our accruals and related disclosures are adequate. The amount of ultimate loss may differ from these estimates. We recognize income from the favorable outcome of litigation when we receive the associated cash or assets. We recognize estimated loss contingencies for certain litigation and regulatory matters and income from favorable resolution of litigation in litigation (recoveries)/charges in our consolidated statements of earnings. Opioid Lawsuits Pharmaceutical wholesale distributors, including us, have been named as defendants in approximately 2,500 lawsuits relating to the distribution of prescription opioid pain medications. These lawsuits have been filed in various federal, state, and other courts by a variety of plaintiffs, primarily counties, municipalities and political subdivisions. Plaintiffs also include unions and other health and welfare funds, hospital systems and other healthcare providers, as well as individuals. Of these lawsuits, 95 are purported class actions. The lawsuits seek equitable relief and monetary damages based on a variety of legal theories including various common law claims, such as negligence, public nuisance and unjust enrichment as well as violations of controlled substance laws, the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act and various other statutes. These lawsuits also name pharmaceutical manufacturers, retail pharmacy chains and other entities as defendants. The vast majority of these lawsuits were filed in U.S. federal court and have been transferred for consolidated pre-trial proceedings in a Multi-District Litigation proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. The court, among other things, has ordered that a bellwether trial involving two county plaintiffs begin in October 2019. Motions for summary judgment have been filed by plaintiffs and defendants. In addition, 18 state attorneys general have filed lawsuits against distributors, including us, in various state courts. Several of these lawsuits, including lawsuits filed by the New York, Ohio and Washington Attorneys General, as well as other cases pending in state court, are currently scheduled to go to trial in the second half of fiscal year 2020 or early fiscal 2021. In addition to the 18 state attorneys general that have filed suit, 43 state attorneys general have formed a multi-state task force to investigate the manufacturing, distribution, dispensing and prescribing practices of opioid medications. We have received requests related to the multi-state investigation, as well as separate civil investigative demands, subpoenas or requests for information from these and other state attorneys general offices. We are cooperating with the offices conducting these investigations. In connection with these proceedings, distributors continue to discuss possible resolution with various parties, including state attorneys general and representatives of the MDL plaintiffs. We are vigorously defending ourselves in all of these opioid-related matters. Given the uncertainty surrounding these lawsuits and investigations, we are unable to predict their outcome or estimate a range of reasonably possible losses, but the defense and resolution of these lawsuits could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and liquidity or have adverse reputational or operational effects on our business. Product Liability Lawsuits As of August 13, 2019, we are named as a defendant in 261 product liability lawsuits coordinated in Alameda County Superior Court in California involving claims by approximately 3,160 plaintiffs that allege personal injuries associated with the use of Cordis OptEase and TrapEase inferior vena cava (IVC) filter products. Another 22 lawsuits involving similar claims by approximately 26 plaintiffs are pending in other jurisdictions. These lawsuits seek a variety of remedies, including unspecified monetary damages. We are vigorously defending ourselves in these lawsuits. At June 30, 2019, we had a total of $368 million , net of estimated insurance recoveries, accrued for losses and legal defense costs related to the Cordis IVC filter lawsuits which are presented on a gross basis in the consolidated balance sheets. We believe there is a range of estimated losses with respect to these matters. Because no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount within the range, we have accrued the minimum amount in the range. We estimate the high end of the range to be approximately $762 million , net of estimated insurance recoveries. Shareholder Securities Litigation In August 2019, the Louisiana Sheriffs' Pension & Relief Fund filed a purported class action complaint against Cardinal Health and certain current and former officers and employees in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio purportedly on behalf of all purchasers of our common shares between March 2015 and May 2018. The complaint alleges that the defendants violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 by making misrepresentations and omissions related to the integration of the Cordis business and inventory and supply chain problems within the Cordis business, and seeks to recover unspecified damages and equitable relief for the alleged misstatements and omissions. We believe that the claims asserted in this complaint are without merit and intend to vigorously defend against them. Due to the early stage of this proceeding, it is not possible to reasonably estimate the amount of any possible loss or range of loss in this matter. Antitrust Litigation Proceeds We received and recognized income resulting from settlements of lawsuits in which we were a class member or plaintiff of $94 million and $22 million during fiscal 2019 and 2018, respectively. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Financial Instruments | 11. Financial Instruments We utilize derivative financial instruments to manage exposure to certain risks related to our ongoing operations. The primary risks managed through the use of derivative instruments include interest rate risk, currency exchange risk, and commodity price risk. We do not use derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. While the majority of our derivative instruments are designated as hedging instruments, we also enter into derivative instruments that are designed to hedge a risk, but are not designated as hedging instruments. These derivative instruments are adjusted to current fair value through earnings at the end of each period. We are exposed to counterparty credit risk on all of our derivative instruments. Accordingly, we have established and maintain strict counterparty credit guidelines and only enter into derivative instruments with major financial institutions that are investment grade or better. We do not have significant exposure to any one counterparty and we believe the risk of loss is remote. Additionally, we do not require collateral under these agreements. Interest Rate Risk Management We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. Our objective is to manage the impact of interest rate changes on cash flows and the market value of our borrowings. We utilize a mix of debt maturities along with both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt to manage changes in interest rates. In addition, we enter into interest rate swaps to further manage our exposure to interest rate variations related to our borrowings and to lower our overall borrowing costs. Currency Exchange Risk Management We conduct business in several major international currencies and are subject to risks associated with changing foreign exchange rates. Our objective is to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility associated with foreign exchange rate changes to allow management to focus its attention on business operations. Accordingly, we enter into various contracts that change in value as foreign exchange rates change to protect the value of existing foreign currency assets and liabilities, commitments and anticipated foreign currency revenue and expenses. Commodity Price Risk Management We are exposed to changes in the price of certain commodities. Our objective is to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility associated with forecasted purchases of these commodities to allow management to focus its attention on business operations. Accordingly, we enter into derivative contracts when possible to manage the price risk associated with certain forecasted purchases. The following table summarizes the fair value of our assets and liabilities related to derivatives designated as hedging instruments and the respective line items in which they were recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30: (in millions) 2019 2018 Assets: Pay-floating interest rate swaps (1) $ 46 $ — Cross-currency swap (1) 12 — Foreign currency contracts (2) 6 3 Commodity contracts (2) — 2 Total assets $ 64 $ 5 Liabilities: Pay-floating interest rate swaps (3) $ 6 $ 78 Foreign currency contracts (4) 2 3 Commodity contracts (4) 3 — Total liabilities $ 11 $ 81 (1) Included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. (2) Included in prepaid expenses and other in the consolidated balance sheets. (3) Included in deferred income taxes and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. (4) Included in other accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Fair Value Hedges We enter into pay-floating interest rate swaps to hedge the changes in the fair value of fixed-rate debt resulting from fluctuations in interest rates. These contracts are designated and qualify as fair value hedges. Accordingly, the gain or loss recorded on the pay-floating interest rate swaps is directly offset by the change in fair value of the underlying debt. Both the derivative instrument and the underlying debt are adjusted to market value at the end of each period with any resulting gain or loss recorded in interest expense, net in the consolidated statements of earnings. During fiscal 2019 and 2018 , there was no gain or loss recorded to interest expense as changes in the market value of our derivative instruments offset changes in the market value of the underlying debt. During fiscal 2018 we entered into pay-floating interest rate swaps with total notional amounts of $1.1 billion . These swaps have been designated as fair value hedges of our fixed rate debt and are included in deferred income taxes and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. During fiscal 2019 , we terminated notional amounts of $163 million of pay-floating interest rate swaps in connection with the debt redemption in fourth quarter fiscal 2019 described in Note 6 . These swaps were previously designated as fair value hedges. During fiscal 2018 , $550 million of pay-floating interest rate swaps matured. The following tables summarize the outstanding interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges at June 30: 2019 (in millions) Notional Amount Maturity Date Pay-floating interest rate swaps $ 2,150 Nov 2019 - Sep 2025 2018 (in millions) Notional Amount Maturity Date Pay-floating interest rate swaps $ 2,313 Nov 2019 - Sep 2025 The following table summarizes the gain/(loss) recognized in earnings for interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges: (in millions) 2019 2018 2017 Pay-floating interest rate swaps (1) $ 9 $ 11 $ 17 Fixed-rate debt (1) (9 ) (11 ) (17 ) (1) Included in interest expense, net in the consolidated statements of earnings. There was no ineffectiveness associated with these derivative instruments for any periods presented. Cash Flow Hedges We enter into derivative instruments to hedge our exposure to changes in cash flows attributable to interest rate, foreign currency and commodity price fluctuations associated with certain forecasted transactions. These derivative instruments are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. All gains and losses currently included within accumulated other comprehensive loss associated with our foreign exchange forward contracts that are expected to be reclassified into net earnings within the next 12 months are immaterial. We enter into foreign currency contracts to protect the value of anticipated foreign currency revenues and expenses. At June 30, 2019 and 2018 , we held contracts to hedge probable, but not firmly committed, revenue and expenses. The principal currencies hedged are the Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, euro, Thai baht, Chinese renminbi, Japanese yen, Australian dollar, and British pound. We enter into commodity contracts to manage the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of certain commodities used in our Medical segment. The following tables summarize the outstanding cash flow hedges at June 30: 2019 (in millions) Notional Amount Maturity Date Foreign currency contracts $ 381 Jul 2019 - Jun 2020 Commodity contracts 20 Jul 2019 - Jun 2020 2018 (in millions) Notional Amount Maturity Date Foreign currency contracts $ 124 Jul 2018 - Jun 2019 Commodity contracts 12 Jul 2018 - Oct 2020 The following table summarizes the gain/(loss) included in AOCI for derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges at June 30: (in millions) 2019 2018 Commodity contracts $ (3 ) $ 2 Foreign currency contracts 4 (2 ) The following table summarizes the gain/(loss) reclassified from AOCI into earnings for derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges: (in millions) 2019 2018 2017 Foreign currency contracts (1) $ 2 $ 1 $ (1 ) Foreign currency contracts (2) — — (1 ) Foreign currency contracts (3) 1 (2 ) 2 Commodity contracts (3) — — (3 ) (1) Included in revenue in the consolidated statements of earnings. (2) Included in cost of products sold in the consolidated statements of earnings. (3) Included in SG&A expenses in the consolidated statements of earnings. The amount of ineffectiveness associated with these derivative instruments was immaterial for all periods presented. Net Investment Hedges We hedge the foreign currency risk associated with certain net investment positions in European subsidiaries. To accomplish this, we enter into cross-currency swaps that are designated as hedges of net investments. In September 2018 , we entered into a €200 million cross-currency swap maturing in 2023 . Cross-currency swaps designated as net investment hedges are marked-to-market using the current spot exchange rate as of the end of the period, with gains and losses included in the foreign currency translation component of accumulated other comprehensive loss until the sale or substantial liquidation of the underlying net investments. To the extent the cross-currency swaps designated as net investment hedges are not highly effective, changes in carrying value attributable to the change in spot rates are recorded in earnings. There was no ineffectiveness in our net investment hedges during fiscal 2019 . Economic (Non-Designated) Hedges We enter into foreign currency contracts to manage our foreign exchange exposure related to sales transactions, intercompany financing transactions and other balance sheet items subject to revaluation that do not meet the requirements for hedge accounting treatment. Accordingly, these derivative instruments are adjusted to current market value at the end of each period through earnings. The gain or loss recorded on these instruments is substantially offset by the remeasurement adjustment on the foreign currency denominated asset or liability. The settlement of the derivative instrument and the remeasurement adjustment on the foreign currency denominated asset or liability are both recorded in other (income)/expense, net. The principal currency managed through foreign currency contracts is the euro.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests | 12. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests In connection with the acquisition of a 71 percent ownership interest in naviHealth during fiscal 2016 , we recognized redeemable noncontrolling interests with a fair value of $119 million at the acquisition date. In August 2017 , certain third-party noncontrolling interest holders exercised their put right on the noncontrolling interest representing 16 percent of naviHealth with a redemption value of $ 103 million and a carrying value of $ 109 million . We settled the put in September 2017 and our ownership in naviHealth increased to 98 percent , up from 82 percent at June 30, 2017 and 2016 . In June 2018 , we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement and related Contribution and Rollover Agreement to sell our 98 percent ownership interest in naviHealth, which closed on August 1, 2018 . See Note 2 for more information.

Equity [Abstract] | |
Shareholders' Equity | 13. Shareholders' Equity At June 30, 2019 and 2018 , authorized capital shares consisted of the following: 750 million Class A common shares, without par value; 5 million Class B common shares, without par value; and 500 thousand non-voting preferred shares, without par value. The Class A common shares and Class B common shares are collectively referred to below as “common shares”. Holders of common shares are entitled to share equally in any dividends declared by the Board of Directors and to participate equally in all distributions of assets upon liquidation. Generally, the holders of Class A common shares are entitled to one vote per share, and the holders of Class B common shares are entitled to one-fifth of one vote per share on proposals presented to shareholders for vote. Under certain circumstances, the holders of Class B common shares are entitled to vote as a separate class. Only Class A common shares were outstanding at June 30, 2019 and 2018 . We repurchased $1.8 billion of our common shares, in the aggregate, through share repurchase programs during fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , as described below. We funded the repurchases with available cash and short term borrowings. The common shares repurchased are held in treasury to be used for general corporate purposes. During fiscal 2019 , we repurchased 11.5 million common shares having an aggregate cost of $600 million . The average price paid per common share was $52.32 . These repurchases were made under an accelerated share repurchase ("ASR") program, which began on August 16, 2018 and was completed on October 25, 2018. During fiscal 2018 , we repurchased 8.4 million common shares having an aggregate cost of $550 million . The average price paid per common share was $65.30 . These repurchases include $300 million purchased under an ASR program, which began on February 14, 2018 and was completed on March 21, 2018. We repurchased 4.3 million shares under the ASR at an average price paid per share of $69.26 . During fiscal 2017 , we repurchased 8.1 million common shares having an aggregate cost of $600 million . The average price paid per common share was $74.08 . During fiscal 2017 , we retired 37 million common shares in treasury. The retirement of these shares had no impact on total shareholders' equity; however, it did impact certain individual components of shareholders' equity as follows: $2.5 billion decrease in common shares in treasury, $302 million decrease in common shares, and $2.2 billion decrease in retained earnings.

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Information | 15. Segment Information Our operations are principally managed on a products and services basis and are comprised of two operating segments, which are the same as our reportable segments: Pharmaceutical and Medical. The factors for determining the reportable segments include the manner in which management evaluates performance for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance combined with the nature of the individual business activities. Revenue Our Pharmaceutical segment distributes branded and generic pharmaceutical, specialty pharmaceutical and over-the-counter healthcare and consumer products in the United States. This segment also provides services to pharmaceutical manufacturers and healthcare providers for specialty pharmaceutical products; operates nuclear pharmacies and radiopharmaceutical manufacturing facilities; provides pharmacy management services to hospitals as well as medication therapy management and patient outcomes services to hospitals, other healthcare providers and payers; and repackages generic pharmaceuticals and over-the-counter healthcare products. Our Medical segment manufactures, sources and distributes Cardinal Health branded medical, surgical and laboratory products, which are sold in the United States, Canada, Europe, Asia and other markets. We further expanded this segment's portfolio of manufactured products through the acquisition of the Patient Recovery Business from Medtronic in July 2017, which includes incontinence, wound care, enteral feeding, urology, operating room supply, electrode and needle, syringe and sharps disposal product lines. In addition to distributing Cardinal Health branded products, this segment also distributes a broad range of medical, surgical and laboratory products known as national brand products and provides supply chain services and solutions to hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, clinical laboratories and other healthcare providers in the United States and Canada. The following table presents revenue for each reportable segment and Corporate: (in millions) 2019 2018 2017 Pharmaceutical $ 129,917 $ 121,241 $ 116,463 Medical 15,633 15,581 13,524 Total segment revenue 145,550 136,822 129,987 Corporate (1) (16 ) (13 ) (11 ) Total revenue $ 145,534 $ 136,809 $ 129,976 (1) Corporate revenue consists of the elimination of inter-segment revenue and other revenue not allocated to the segments. The following table presents disaggregated revenue within our two reportable segments: 2019 (in millions) Pharmaceutical Distribution and Specialty Solutions (1) $ 129,067 Nuclear and Precision Health Solutions 850 Pharmaceutical segment revenue 129,917 Medical distribution and products (2) 13,833 Cardinal Health at-Home Solutions 1,800 Medical segment revenue 15,633 Total segment revenue 145,550 Corporate (3) (16 ) Total revenue $ 145,534 (1) Products and services offered by our Specialty Solutions division are referred to as “specialty pharmaceutical products and services" (2) Comprised of all Medical segment businesses except for Cardinal Health at-Home Solutions division (3) Corporate revenue consists of the elimination of inter-segment revenue and other revenue not allocated to the segments. The following table presents revenue by geographic area: (in millions) 2019 2018 2017 United States $ 141,479 $ 132,539 $ 125,017 International 4,071 4,283 4,970 Total segment revenue 145,550 136,822 129,987 Corporate (1) (16 ) (13 ) (11 ) Total revenue $ 145,534 $ 136,809 $ 129,976 (1) Corporate revenue consists of the elimination of inter-segment revenue and other revenue not allocated to the segments. Segment Profit We evaluate segment performance based on segment profit, among other measures. Segment profit is segment revenue, less segment cost of products sold, less segment distribution, selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") expenses. Segment SG&A expenses include share-based compensation expense as well as allocated corporate expenses for shared functions, including corporate management, corporate finance, financial and customer care shared services, human resources, information technology, legal and compliance, including certain litigation defense costs. Corporate expenses are allocated to the segments based on headcount, level of benefit provided and other ratable allocation methodologies. The results attributable to noncontrolling interests are recorded within segment profit. We do not allocate the following items to our segments: last-in first-out, or ("LIFO"), inventory charges/(credits); restructuring and employee severance; amortization and other acquisition-related costs; impairments and (gain)/loss on disposal of assets; litigation (recoveries)/charges, net; other (income)/expense, net; interest expense, net; loss on extinguishment of debt; and provision for/(benefit from) income taxes. In addition, certain investment spending, certain portions of enterprise-wide incentive compensation and other spending are not allocated to the segments. Investment spending generally includes the first-year spend for certain projects that require incremental investments in the form of additional operating expenses. Because approval for these projects is dependent on executive management, we retain these expenses at Corporate. Investment spending within Corporate was $55 million , $43 million and $17 million for fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. In connection with the naviHealth divestiture discussed in Note 2 , we recognized a pre-tax gain of $508 million during fiscal 2019 which was retained at Corporate.

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] | |
Share-Based Compensation | 16. Share-Based Compensation We maintain stock incentive plans (collectively, the “Plans”) for the benefit of certain of our officers, directors and employees. At June 30, 2019 , 16 million shares remain available for future grants under the Amended Cardinal Health, Inc. 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan ("2011 LTIP"). Under the 2011 LTIP's fungible share counting provisions, stock options are counted against the plan as one share for every share issued ; awards other than stock options are counted against the plan as two and one-half shares for every share issued . This means that only 6 million shares could be issued under awards other than stock options while 16 million shares could be issued under stock options. Shares are issued out of treasury shares when stock options are exercised and when restricted share units and performance share units vest. The following table provides total share-based compensation expense by type of award: (in millions) 2019 2018 2017 Restricted share unit expense $ 63 $ 73 $ 69 Employee stock option expense 10 22 19 Performance share unit expense 9 (10 ) 8 Total share-based compensation expense $ 82 $ 85 $ 96 The total tax benefit related to share-based compensation was $16 million , $23 million and $34 million for fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Restricted Share Units Restricted share units granted under the Plans generally vest in equal annual installments over three years . Restricted share units accrue cash dividend equivalents that are payable upon vesting of the awards. The following table summarizes all transactions related to restricted share units under the Plans: (in millions, except per share amounts) Restricted Share Units Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value per Share Nonvested at June 30, 2017 2 $ 76.72 Granted 1 65.97 Vested (1 ) 78.92 Canceled and forfeited — — Nonvested at June 30, 2018 2 71.58 Granted 2 50.13 Vested (1 ) 74.52 Canceled and forfeited (1 ) 62.32 Nonvested at June 30, 2019 2 $ 51.65 The following table provides additional data related to restricted share unit activity: (in millions) 2019 2018 2017 Total compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to nonvested restricted share and share unit awards not yet recognized, pre-tax $ 75 $ 78 $ 73 Weighted-average period in years over which restricted share and share unit cost is expected to be recognized (in years) 2 2 2 Total fair value of shares vested during the year $ 68 $ 65 $ 64 Stock Options Employee stock options granted under the Plans generally vest in equal annual installments over three years and are exercisable for a period up to ten years from the grant date. All stock options are exercisable at a price equal to the market value of the common shares underlying the option on the grant date. The following table summarizes all stock option transactions under the Plans: (in millions, except per share amounts) Stock Options Weighted-Average Exercise Price per Common Share Outstanding at June 30, 2017 6 $ 63.44 Granted 2 66.39 Exercised (1 ) 43.12 Canceled and forfeited — — Outstanding at June 30, 2018 7 64.50 Granted — — Exercised — — Canceled and forfeited (1 ) 72.54 Outstanding at June 30, 2019 6 $ 63.78 Exercisable at June 30, 2019 6 $ 62.74 The following table provides additional detail related to stock options: (in millions, except per share amounts) 2019 2018 2017 Aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding options at period end $ 10 $ 13 $ 109 Aggregate intrinsic value of exercisable options at period end 10 13 106 Aggregate intrinsic value of exercised options 1 14 73 Net proceeds/(withholding) from share-based compensation 3 (3 ) 26 Excess tax benefits from share based compensation 7 10 34 Total compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to unvested stock options not yet recognized, pre-tax 5 17 22 Total fair value of shares vested during the year 20 19 19 Weighted-average grant date fair value per stock option $ 8.34 $ 13.50 $ 16.67 (in years) 2019 2018 2017 Weighted-average remaining contractual life of outstanding options 5 7 7 Weighted-average remaining contractual life of exercisable options 5 5 6 Weighted-average period over which stock option compensation cost is expected to be recognized 1 2 2 Until the end of fiscal 2018, stock options were granted to our officers and certain employees. The fair values were estimated on the grant date using a lattice valuation model. We believe the lattice model provides reasonable estimates because it has the ability to take into account individual exercise patterns based on changes in our stock price and other variables, and it provides for a range of input assumptions, which are disclosed in the table below. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the time of the grant. We analyzed historical data to estimate option exercise behaviors and employee terminations to be used within the lattice model. The expected life of the options granted was calculated from the option valuation model and represents the length of time in years that the options granted are expected to be outstanding. Expected volatilities are based on implied volatility from traded options on our common shares and historical volatility over a period of time commensurate with the contractual term of the option grant (up to ten years ). There were no stock options granted to employees during fiscal year 2019. The following table provides the range of assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options: 2018 2017 Risk-free interest rate 2.1% 1.4% - 2.0% Expected volatility 25% 24% Dividend yield 2.7% - 2.8% 2.2% - 2.5% Expected life in years 7 7 Performance Share Units Performance share units generally vest over a three -year performance period based on achievement of specific performance goals. Based on the extent to which the targets are achieved, vested shares may range from zero to 240 percent of the target award amount. Performance share units accrue cash dividend equivalents that are payable upon vesting of the awards. The following table summarizes all transactions related to performance share units under the Plans (based on target award amounts): (in millions, except per share amounts) Performance Share Units Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value per Share Nonvested at June 30, 2017 0.6 $ 77.83 Granted 0.2 66.43 Vested (1) (0.2 ) 71.57 Canceled and forfeited (0.2 ) — Nonvested at June 30, 2018 0.4 66.13 Granted 0.6 50.96 Vested — — Canceled and forfeited (0.1 ) 52.20 Nonvested at June 30, 2019 0.9 $ 51.45 (1) Vested at 133 percent of the target performance share units granted.

Our contributions to the plans are determined by the Board of Directors subject to certain minimum requirements as specified in the plans. The total expense for our employee retirement savings plans was $99 million , $129 million and $49 million for fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. |

Subsequent Events | 18. Subsequent Events On August 7, 2019, we were authorized to incur restructuring costs in connection with certain cost-savings initiatives intended to optimize and simplify our operating model and cost structure. We expect these cost-savings initiatives, which will affect various functional and commercial areas across the Company, to be substantially implemented during fiscal year 2020. As a result of these initiatives, we expect to record restructuring charges of approximately $120 million to $145 million , the majority of which are expected to be expensed during fiscal year 2020. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries, and all significant intercompany transactions and amounts have been eliminated. To conform to the current year presentation, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified. The results of businesses acquired or disposed of are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition or up to the date of disposal, respectively. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates, judgments and assumptions are used in the accounting and disclosure related to, among other items, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation and reserves, business combinations, goodwill and other intangible asset impairment, vendor reserves, loss contingencies, self-insurance accruals, income taxes and share-based compensation. Actual amounts could ultimately differ from these estimated amounts. |
Cash Equivalents | Cash Equivalents We consider liquid investments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of cash equivalents approximates fair value. |
Receivables | Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Trade receivables are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $193 million and $139 million at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. An account is considered past due on the first day after its due date. In accordance with contract terms, we generally have the ability to charge customers service fees or higher prices if an account is considered past due. We regularly monitor past due accounts and establish appropriate reserves to cover potential losses, which are based primarily on historical collection rates and the credit worthiness of the customer. We write off any amounts deemed uncollectible against the established allowance for doubtful accounts. We provide financing to various customers. Such financing arrangements range from 1 year to 5 years at interest rates that are generally subject to fluctuation. Interest income on these arrangements is recognized as it is earned. The financings may be collateralized, guaranteed by third parties or unsecured. Finance notes, net and related accrued interest were $103 million (current portion $12 million ) and $136 million (current portion $26 million ) at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, and are included in other assets (current portion is included in prepaid expenses and other) in the consolidated balance sheets. Finance notes receivable allowance for doubtful accounts were $14 million and $7 million at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. We estimate an allowance for these financing receivables based on historical collection rates and the credit worthiness of the customer. We write off any amounts deemed uncollectible against the established allowance for doubtful accounts. |
Concentrations of Credit Risk | Concentrations of Credit Risk We maintain cash depository accounts with major banks, and we invest in high quality, short-term liquid instruments, and in marketable securities. Our short-term liquid instruments mature within three months and we have not historically incurred any related losses. Our trade receivables and finance notes and related accrued interest are exposed to a concentration of credit risk with certain large customers and with customers in the retail and healthcare sectors. Credit risk can be affected by changes in reimbursement and other economic pressures impacting the healthcare industry. With respect to customers in the retail and healthcare sectors, such credit risk is limited due to supporting collateral and the diversity of the customer base, including its wide geographic dispersion. We perform regular credit evaluations of our customers’ financial conditions and maintain reserves for losses through the established allowance for doubtful accounts. Historically, such losses have been within our expectations. Refer to the "Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts" section within this Note for additional information on the accounting treatment of reserves for allowance for doubtful accounts. |
Major Customers | Major Customers CVS Health Corporation ("CVS") and OptumRx, are our only customers that individually account for at least 10 percent of revenue and gross trade receivables. These customers are primarily serviced through our Pharmaceutical segment. The following table summarizes historical percent of revenue and gross trade receivables from CVS and OptumRx: Percent of Revenue Percent of Gross Trade Receivables at June 30 2019 2018 2017 2019 2018 CVS 26 % 25 % 23 % 24 % 22 % OptumRx 13 % 11 % 11 % 4 % 4 % We have entered into agreements with group purchasing organizations (“GPOs”) which act as purchasing agents that negotiate vendor contracts on behalf of their members. Vizient, Inc. and Premier, Inc. are our two largest GPO member relationships in terms of revenue. Sales to members of these two GPOs collectively accounted for 22 percent , 22 percent and 21 percent of revenue for fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Our trade receivable balances are with individual members of the GPO, and therefore no significant concentration of credit risk exists with these types of arrangements |
Inventories | Inventories A substantial portion of our inventories ( 56 percent at both June 30, 2019 and 2018 ) are valued at the lower of cost, using the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method, or market. These inventories are included within the core pharmaceutical distribution facilities of our Pharmaceutical segment (“distribution facilities”) and are primarily merchandise inventories. The LIFO method presumes that the most recent inventory purchases are the first items sold, so LIFO helps us better match current costs and revenue. We believe that the average cost method of inventory valuation provides a reasonable approximation of the current cost of replacing inventory within the distribution facilities. As such, the LIFO reserve is the difference between (a) inventory at the lower of LIFO cost or market and (b) inventory at replacement cost determined using the average cost method of inventory valuation. If we had used the average cost method of inventory valuation for all inventory within the distribution facilities, the value of our inventories would not have changed in fiscal 2019 or 2018 because inventories valued at LIFO were $230 million and $92 million higher than the average cost value at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. We do not record inventories in excess of replacement cost. As such, we did not record a LIFO reserve in fiscal 2019 or 2018 . Our remaining inventory that is not valued at the lower of LIFO or market is stated at the lower of cost, using the first-in, first-out method, or net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. Inventories presented in the consolidated balance sheets are net of reserves for excess and obsolete inventory which were $171 million and $147 million at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. |
Cash Discounts | Cash Discounts Manufacturer cash discounts are recorded as a component of inventory cost and recognized as a reduction of cost of products sold as inventory is sold. |
Property and Equipment | Property and Equipment Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Property and equipment held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell. When certain events or changes in operating conditions occur, an impairment assessment may be performed on the recoverability of the carrying amounts. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, including capital lease assets which are depreciated over the terms of their respective leases. We generally use the following range of useful lives for our property and equipment categories: buildings and improvements— 3 to 39 years ; machinery and equipment— 3 to 20 years ; and furniture and fixtures— 3 to 7 years . We recorded depreciation and amortization expense of $455 million , $446 million and $314 million for fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The following table presents the components of property and equipment, net at June 30: (in millions) 2019 2018 Land, building and improvements $ 1,992 $ 2,115 Machinery and equipment 3,038 3,006 Furniture and fixtures 138 139 Total property and equipment, at cost 5,168 5,260 Accumulated depreciation and amortization (2,812 ) (2,773 ) Property and equipment, net $ 2,356 $ 2,487 Repairs and maintenance expenditures are expensed as incurred. Interest on long-term projects is capitalized using a rate that approximates the weighted-average interest rate on long-term obligations, which was 5 percent at June 30, 2019 . The amount of capitalized interest was immaterial for all periods presented. |
Business Combinations | Business Combinations The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, including identifiable intangible assets, are recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. We base the fair values of identifiable intangible assets on detailed valuations that require management to make significant judgments, estimates and assumptions. Critical estimates and assumptions include: expected future cash flows for customer relationships, trade names and other identifiable intangible assets; discount rates that reflect the risk factors associated with future cash flows; and estimates of useful lives. When an acquisition involves contingent consideration, we recognize a liability equal to the fair value of the contingent consideration obligation at the acquisition date. The estimate of fair value of a contingent consideration obligation requires subjective assumptions to be made regarding future business results, discount rates, discount periods and probabilities assigned to various potential business result scenarios. See Note 2 for additional information regarding our acquisitions. |
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Purchased goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment annually or when indicators of impairment exist. Purchased goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually. Qualitative factors are first assessed to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. There is an option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to performing the quantitative goodwill impairment test. We have elected to bypass the qualitative assessment for our annual goodwill impairment test in the current year. The quantitative goodwill impairment test involves a comparison of the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to the respective carrying amount. Goodwill impairment testing involves judgment, including the identification of reporting units, qualitative evaluation of events and circumstances to determine if it is more likely than not that an impairment exists, and, if necessary, the estimation of the fair value of the applicable reporting unit. Our qualitative evaluation considers the weight of evidence and significance of all identified events and circumstances and most relevant drivers of fair value, both positive and negative, in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. We have two operating segments, which are the same as our reportable segments: Pharmaceutical and Medical. These operating segments are comprised of divisions (components), for which discrete financial information is available. Components are aggregated into reporting units for purposes of goodwill impairment testing to the extent that they share similar economic characteristics. Our reporting units are: Pharmaceutical operating segment (excluding our Nuclear and Precision Health Solutions division); Nuclear and Precision Health Solutions division; Medical operating segment (excluding our Cardinal Health at-Home Solutions division) (“Medical Unit”); and Cardinal Health at-Home Solutions division. Our Nuclear and Precision Health Solutions division was formerly referred to as our Nuclear Pharmacy Services division and our Cardinal Health at-Home Solutions division was formerly referred to as our Cardinal Health at Home division. Fair value can be determined using market, income or cost-based approaches. Our determination of estimated fair value of the reporting units is based on a combination of the income-based and market-based approaches. Under the income-based approach, we use a discounted cash flow model in which cash flows anticipated over several future periods, plus a terminal value at the end of that time horizon, are discounted to their present value using an appropriate risk-adjusted rate of return. We use our internal forecasts to estimate future cash flows, which we believe are consistent with those of a market participant, and include an estimate of long-term growth rates based on our most recent views of the long-term outlook for each reporting unit. Actual results may differ materially from those used in our forecasts. We use discount rates that are commensurate with the risks and uncertainty inherent in the respective reporting units and in our internally-developed forecasts. Discount rates used in our reporting unit valuations ranged from 8.5 percent to 11.5 percent . Under the market-based approach, we determine fair value by comparing our reporting units to similar businesses or guideline companies whose securities are actively traded in public markets. We also use the guideline transaction method to determine fair value based on pricing multiples derived from the sale of companies that are similar to our reporting units. To further confirm fair value, we compare the aggregate fair value of our reporting units to our total market capitalization. Estimating the fair value of reporting units requires the use of estimates and significant judgments that are based on a number of factors including forecasted operating results. The use of alternate estimates and assumptions or changes in the industry or peer groups could materially affect the determination of fair value for each reporting unit and potentially result in goodwill impairment. We performed annual impairment testing in fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 and with the exception of our Medical Unit in fiscal 2018, concluded that there were no impairments of goodwill as the estimated fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value. As discussed further in Note 4 of the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements," during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 we recognized a $1.4 billion goodwill impairment charge related to our Medical Unit, which is included in impairments and loss on disposal of assets in our consolidated statements of earnings. There was no tax benefit related to this goodwill impairment charge. The impairment test for indefinite-lived intangibles other than goodwill (primarily IPR&D) involves first assessing qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. If so, then a quantitative test is performed to compare the estimated fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to the respective asset's carrying amount. Our qualitative evaluation requires the use of estimates and significant judgments and considers the weight of evidence and significance of all identified events and circumstances and most relevant drivers of fair value, both positive and negative, in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. Intangible assets with finite lives, primarily customer relationships; trademarks, trade names and patents; and developed technology, are amortized using a combination of straight-line and accelerated methods based on the expected cash flows from the asset over their estimated useful lives. We review intangible assets with finite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Determining whether an impairment loss occurred requires a comparison of the carrying amount to the sum of the future forecasted undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. Actual results may differ materially from those used in our forecasts. |
Assets Held for Sale, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Assets Held for Sale We classify assets and liabilities (the “disposal group”) as held for sale when management commits to a plan to sell the disposal group in its present condition and at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value. We also consider whether an active program to locate a buyer has been initiated and if it is probable that the sale will occur within one year without significant changes to the plan to sell. Upon classification of the disposal group as held for sale, we test the assets for impairment and cease related depreciation and amortization. |
Investments | Investments Investments in non-marketable equity securities are accounted for under the fair value, equity or net asset value method of accounting and are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. For equity securities without a readily determinable fair value, we use the fair value measurement alternative and measure the securities at cost less impairment, if any, including adjustments for observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer. For investments in which we can exercise significant influence but do not control, we use the equity method of accounting. Our share of the earnings and losses are recorded in other income, net in the consolidated statements of earnings. We monitor our investments for impairment by considering factors such as the operating performance of the investment and current economic and market conditions. |
Vendor Reserves | Vendor Reserves In the ordinary course of business, our vendors may dispute deductions taken against payments otherwise due to them or assert other disputes. These disputes are researched and resolved based upon the findings of the research performed. At any given time, there are outstanding items in various stages of research and resolution. In determining appropriate reserves for areas of exposure with our vendors, we assess historical experience and current outstanding claims. We have established various levels of reserves based on the type of claim and status of review. Though the claim types are relatively consistent, we periodically refine our methodology by updating the reserve estimate percentages to reflect actual historical experience. The ultimate outcome of certain claims may be different than our original estimate and may require an adjustment. Adjustments to vendor reserves are included in cost of products sold. In addition, the reserve balance will fluctuate due to variations of outstanding claims from period-to-period, timing of settlements and specific vendor issues, such as bankruptcies. Vendor reserves were $53 million and $45 million at June 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, excluding third-party returns. See Third-Party Returns section within this Note for a description of third-party returns. |
Distribution Service Agreement and Other Vendor Fees | Distribution Services Agreement and Other Vendor Fees Our Pharmaceutical segment recognizes fees received from distribution services agreements and other fees received from vendors related to the purchase or distribution of the vendors’ inventory when those fees have been earned and we are entitled to payment. Since the benefit provided to a vendor is related to the purchase and distribution of the vendor’s inventory, we recognize the fees as a reduction in the carrying value of the inventory that generated the fees, and as such, a reduction of cost of products sold in our consolidated statements of earnings when the inventory is sold. |
Loss Contingencies | Loss Contingencies and Self-Insurance We accrue for contingencies related to disputes, litigation and regulatory matters if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We develop and periodically update reserve estimates for Cordis IVC claims, including those received to date and expected to be received in the future and related costs. To project future Cordis IVC claim costs, we use a methodology based largely on recent experience, including claim filing rates, estimated indemnity severity by claim type, sales data and estimated defense costs. We also self-insure for employee healthcare, general liability, certain product liability matters, auto liability, property and workers' compensation. Self-insurance accruals include an estimate for expected settlements or pending claims, defense costs, administrative fees, claim adjustment costs and an estimate for claims incurred but not reported. Because these matters are inherently unpredictable and unfavorable developments or resolutions can occur, assessing contingencies and other liabilities is highly subjective and requires judgments about future events. We regularly review contingencies and our self-insurance accruals to determine whether our accruals and related disclosures are adequate. Any adjustments for changes in reserves are recorded in the period in which the change in estimate occurs. The amount of ultimate loss may differ from these estimates. We recognize these estimated loss contingencies, income from favorable resolution of litigation and certain defense costs in litigation (recoveries)/charges in our consolidated statements of earnings. See Note 8 for additional information regarding loss contingencies a |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in the respective jurisdictions in which we operate . We assess the realizability of deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and provide a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that at least a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The realizability of deferred tax assets depends on our ability to generate sufficient taxable income within the carryback or carryforward periods provided for in the tax law for each applicable tax jurisdiction and also considers all available positive and negative evidence. Deferred taxes for non-U.S. liabilities are not provided on the unremitted earnings of subsidiaries outside of the United States when it is expected that these earnings are indefinitely reinvested. We operate in a complex multinational tax environment and are subject to tax treaty arrangements and transfer pricing guidelines for intercompany transactions that are subject to interpretation. Uncertainty in a tax position may arise as tax laws are subject to interpretation. Tax benefits from uncertain tax positions are recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination of the technical merits of the position, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amoun t of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement. For tax benefits that do not qualify for recognition, we recognize a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. See Note 7 for additional information regarding income taxes. |
Other Accrued Liabilities, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Other Accrued Liabilities Other accrued liabilities represent various current obligations, including certain accrued operating expenses and taxes payable. |
Noncontrolling Interests and Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests | Noncontrolling Interests and Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests Noncontrolling interests represent the portion of net earnings, comprehensive income and net assets that is not attributable to Cardinal Health, Inc. The redeemable noncontrolling interests relate to our prior ownership interest in naviHealth Holdings, LLC ("naviHealth"), which we acquired during fiscal 2016. The redeemable noncontrolling interests were redeemable at the option of the third-party noncontrolling interest holders at any time after the two-year anniversary of the closing, or earlier if a trigger event occurred. As such, the noncontrolling interests were presented as redeemable noncontrolling interests in our June 30, 2018 consolidated balance sheets. The noncontrolling interests were adjusted each period for net earnings and dividends attributable to the noncontrolling interests and changes in the noncontrolling ownership interests, if any. Changes in the carrying value of the noncontrolling interests related to a change in the redemption value were recorded through retained earnings and did not affect net earnings attributable to Cardinal Health, Inc. See Note 12 for additional information regarding redeemable noncontrolling interests. In August 2018, we sold our 98 percent ownership interest in naviHealth. For more information on this divestiture see Note 2 . |
Share-Based Compensation | Share-Based Compensation Share-based compensation provided to employees is recognized in the consolidated statements of earnings based on the grant date fair value of the awards. The fair value of stock options is determined on the grant date using a lattice valuation model. The fair value of restricted share units and performance share units is determined by the grant date market price of our common shares. The compensation expense associated with nonvested performance share units is dependent on our periodic assessment of the probability of the targets being achieved and our estimate, which may vary over time, of the number of shares that ultimately will be issued. The compensation expense recognized for share-based awards is net of estimated forfeitures and is recognized ratably over the service period of the awards. All income tax effects of share-based awards are recognized in the statement of earnings as awards vest or are settled. We classify share-based compensation expense in distribution, selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses to correspond with the same line item as the majority of the cash compensation paid to employees. If awards are modified in connection with a restructuring activity, the incremental share-based compensation expense is classified in restructuring and employee severance. See Note 16 for additional information regarding share-based compensation. |
Dividends, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Dividends We paid cash dividends per common share of $1.91 , $1.85 and $1.80 in fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition We recognize revenue in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for the transfer of goods or services to customers. Revenue in both segments is primarily related to the distribution of pharmaceutical and medical products, which we recognize at a point in time when title transfers to customers and we have no further obligation to provide services related to such merchandise. Service revenues are recognized over the period that services are provided to the customer. Revenues derived from services are not material for either segment for all periods presented. We are generally the principal in a transaction, therefore our revenue is primarily recorded on a gross basis. When we are a principal in a transaction, we have determined that we control the ability to direct the use of the product or service prior to transfer to a customer, are primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the product or service to our customer, have discretion in establishing prices, and ultimately control the transfer of the product or services provided to the customer. |
Sales Returns and Allowances | Sales Returns and Allowances Revenue is recorded net of sales returns and allowances. Revenues are measured based on the amount of consideration that we expect to receive, reduced by estimates for return allowances, discounts, rebates and other variable consideration. Sales returns are recorded based on estimates using historical data. Our customer return policies generally require that the product be physically returned, subject to restocking fees. We only allow customers to return products for credit in a condition suitable to be added back to inventory and resold at full value, or returned to vendors for credit (“merchantable product”). Product returns are generally consistent throughout the year and typically are not specific to any particular product or customer. We accrue for estimated sales returns and allowances at the time of sale based upon historical customer return trends, margin rates and processing costs. Our accrual for sales returns is reflected as a reduction of revenue and cost of products sold for the sales price and cost, respectively. At both June 30, 2019 and 2018 , the accrual for estimated sales returns and allowances was $479 million , the impact of which is reflected in trade receivables, net and inventories, net in the consolidated balance sheets. Sales returns and allowances were $2.2 billion , $2.4 billion and $2.3 billion , for fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. Third-Party Returns We generally do not accept non-merchantable pharmaceutical product returns from our customers, so many of our customers return non-merchantable pharmaceutical products to the manufacturer through third parties. Since our customers generally do not have a direct relationship with manufacturers, our vendors pass the value of such returns to us (usually in the form of an accounts payable deduction). We, in turn, pass the value received, less an administrative fee, to our customer. In certain instances, we pass the estimated value of the return to our customer prior to our receipt of the value from the vendor. Although we believe we have satisfactory protections, we could be subject to claims from customers or vendors if our administration of this overall process was deficient in some respect or our contractual terms with vendors are in conflict with our contractual terms with our customers. We have maintained reserves for some of these situations based on their nature and our historical experience with their resolution. |
Shipping and Handling | Shipping and Handling Shipping and handling costs are primarily included in SG&A expenses in our consolidated statements of earnings and include all delivery expenses as well as all costs to prepare the product for shipment to the end customer. Shipping and handling costs were $622 million , $543 million and $496 million , for fiscal 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively. |
Restructuring and Employee Severance | Restructuring and Employee Severance Restructuring activities are programs that are not part of the ongoing operations of our underlying business, such as closing and consolidating facilities, changing the way we manufacture or distribute our products, moving manufacturing of a product to another location, changes in production or business process outsourcing or insourcing, employee severance (including rationalizing headcount or other significant changes in personnel) and realigning operations (including realignment of the management structure in response to changing market conditions). Also included within restructuring and employee severance are employee severance costs that are not incurred in connection with a restructuring activity. See Note 3 for additional information regarding our restructuring activities. |
Amortization and Other Acquisition-Related Costs | Amortization and Other Acquisition-Related Costs We classify certain costs incurred in connection with acquisitions as amortization and other acquisition-related costs in our consolidated statements of earnings. These costs consist of amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, transaction costs, integration costs and changes in the fair value of contingent consideration obligations. Transaction costs are incurred during the initial evaluation of a potential acquisition and primarily relate to costs to analyze, negotiate and consummate the transaction as well as due diligence activities. Integration costs relate to activities required to combine the operations of an acquired enterprise into our operations and, in the case of the Cordis and Patient Recovery businesses, to stand-up the systems and processes needed to support an expanded geographic footprint. We record changes in the fair value of contingent consideration obligations relating to acquisitions as income or expense in amortization and other acquisition-related costs. See Note 4 for additional information regarding amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. |
Translation of Foreign Currencies | Translation of Foreign Currencies Financial statements of our subsidiaries outside the United States are generally measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Adjustments to translate the assets and liabilities of these foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars are accumulated in shareholders’ equity through AOCI utilizing period-end exchange rates. Revenues and expenses of these foreign subsidiaries are translated using average exchange rates during the year. The foreign currency translation gains/(losses) included in AOCI at June 30, 2019 and 2018 are presented in Note 13 . Foreign currency transaction gains and losses for the period are included in the consolidated statements of earnings in the respective financial statement line item. |
Interest Rate, Currency and Commodity Risk | Interest Rate, Currency and Commodity Risk All derivative instruments are recognized at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets and all changes in fair value are recognized in net earnings or shareholders’ equity through AOCI, net of tax. For contracts that qualify for hedge accounting treatment, the hedge contracts must be effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being hedged and must be designated as a hedge at the inception of the contract. Hedge effectiveness is assessed periodically. Any contract not designated as a hedge, or so designated but ineffective, is adjusted to fair value and recognized immediately in net earnings. If a fair value or cash flow hedge ceases to qualify for hedge accounting treatment, the contract continues to be carried on the balance sheet at fair value until settled and future adjustments to the contract’s fair value are recognized immediately in net earnings. If a forecasted transaction is probable not to occur, amounts previously deferred in AOCI are recognized immediately in net earnings. See Note 11 for additional information regarding our derivative instruments, including the accounting treatment for instruments designated as fair value, cash flow and economic hedges. |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon selling an asset or the price paid to transfer a liability on the measurement date. It focuses on the exit price in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair values are: Level 1 - Observable prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. See Note 10 for additional information regarding fair value measurements. |
Recent Financial Accounting Standards | Recent Financial Accounting Standards In October 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued amended accounting guidance related to derivatives and hedging which permits the use of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") Overnight Index Swap ("OIS") as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes. This guidance will be effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and must be applied on a prospective basis. The impact of adoption on our consolidated financial statements is contingent upon future events. We do not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In March 2018, the FASB issued amended accounting guidance to codify SEC staff accounting bulletin 118 (“SAB 118”), which was issued in connection with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) of December 2017. The guidance allows companies to use provisional estimates to record the effects of the Tax Act and also provides a measurement period (not to exceed one year from the date of enactment) to complete the accounting for the impacts of the Tax Act. We adopted this guidance in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 when it was initially issued as SAB 118. We completed our accounting for the impacts from enactment of the Tax Act during the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Future adjustments to the financial statements may be necessary as final tax regulations, including issued and pending regulatory changes, are issued. We will assess any impact as additional guidance is issued. See Note 7 for additional information regarding income taxes. In June 2016, the FASB issued amended accounting guidance that will require entities to measure credit losses on trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments using an "expected credit loss" model that considers historical experience, current conditions and reasonable supportable forecasts. This guidance also requires that credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses be recognized as allowances rather than as deductions in the amortized cost of the securities. This guidance will be effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption on our consolidated financial statements. Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued amended accounting guidance that requires lessees to recognize most leases on the balance sheet as a lease liability and corresponding right-of-use asset. The guidance also requires disclosures that meet the objective of enabling financial statement users to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. We will adopt this guidance when it is effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and we will elect the transition option which will allow us to apply the guidance prospectively. While we are finalizing the evaluation of the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements, we expect the adoption of this guidance will result in recognition of operating lease liabilities in excess of $400 million based on the present value of the remaining minimum lease commitments. We anticipate recognizing a corresponding right-of-use asset based on the operating lease liabilities adjusted for prepaid and deferred rent and unamortized initial direct costs. We do not currently believe that the guidance will have a material impact on our results of operations, liquidity or debt covenant compliance under our current debt agreements. The majority of our lease spend relates to certain real estate with the remaining lease spend primarily related to equipment. We generally anticipate that the adoption of the amended lease guidance will require certain changes to our systems and processes. Revenue Recognition In May 2014, the FASB issued amended accounting guidance related to revenue recognition which we adopted in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 using the modified retrospective method and that we applied to customer contracts that were not completed as of June 30, 2018. The adoption of the amended accounting guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We did not record any material contract assets, contract liabilities, or deferred contract costs in our consolidated balance sheets upon adopting the amended accounting guidance. As a result of adoption, assets recorded for the right to recover products from customers and the associated refund liabilities for return allowances were not material. We elected the practical expedient to expense costs to obtain a contract when incurred when the amortization period would have been one year or less. Additionally, we elected the practical expedients to not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed and for contracts for which the variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation or to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct good or service that forms part of a single performance obligation. See Note 15 for additional information regarding our disaggregation of revenue. Other Recently Adopted Financial Accounting Standards In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we adopted the following Accounting Standards Updates ("ASU"). ASU 2016-01 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities; ASU 2018-03 Technical Corrections and Improvements to Financial Instruments; ASU 2016-15 Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments; ASU 2016-16 Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory; and ASU 2017-12 Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The adoption of these ASU's did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. |

Divestitures China Divestiture In February 2018, we sold our pharmaceutical and medical products distribution business in China ("China distribution business") for proceeds of $861 million (after adjusting for third party indebtedness and preliminary transaction adjustments) to Shanghai Pharmaceuticals Holding Co., Ltd. The proceeds are not reflective of tax obligations due in connection with the sale, for which we have recorded a liability of $59 million . The purchase price was subject to adjustment based on working capital requirements as set forth in the definitive agreement, for which there were no significant changes in fiscal 2019. We determined that the sale of the China distribution business did not meet the criteria to be classified as discontinued operations. The China distribution business primarily operated within our Pharmaceutical segment, and a smaller portion operated within our Medical segment. During the fiscal year ended 2018, we recognized a pre-tax loss of $41 million related to this divestiture. naviHealth In August 2018, we sold our 98 percent ownership interest in naviHealth to investor entities controlled by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice in exchange for cash proceeds of $737 million (after adjusting for certain fees and expenses) and a 44 percent equity interest in a partnership that owns 100 percent of the equity interest of naviHealth. We also have certain call rights to reacquire naviHealth. Refer to Note 5 for further discussion regarding this investment. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 , we recognized a pre-tax gain of $508 million related to this divestiture in impairments and (gain)/loss on disposal of assets in our consolidated statement of earnings. This gain includes our initial recognition of an equity method investment for $358 million and the derecognition of redeemable noncontrolling interests of $12 million . The fiscal 2019 tax expense as a result of this transaction was $130 million . We determined that the sale of the naviHealth business did not meet the criteria to be classified as discontinued operations. The naviHealth business operated within our Medical segment. |
