Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates	Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Owens & Minor, Inc. and the subsidiaries it controls (we, us, or our) and contain all adjustments (which are comprised only of normal recurring accruals and use of estimates) necessary to conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. The Clinical & Procedural Solutions (CPS) business segment has been renamed "Proprietary Products" effective January 1, 2017. Byram Healthcare (Byram), acquired on August 1, 2017, is included in the Domestic segment. There have been no other changes to the segment composition or our method of measuring segment operating earnings. Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make assumptions and estimates that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value	Fair Value The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, financing receivables, accounts payable and financing payables included in the consolidated balance sheets approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market (Level 1) or, if quoted market prices or dealer quotes are not available, on the borrowing rates currently available for loans with similar terms, credit ratings and average remaining maturities (Level 2). We determine the fair value of our derivatives, if any, based on estimated amounts that would be received or paid to terminate the contracts at the reporting date based on current market prices for applicable currencies. See Note 8 for the fair value of long-term debt.

Acquisition

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Acquisition	Acquisition On August 1, 2017, we completed the acquisition of Byram Healthcare, a leading domestic distributor of reimbursable medical supplies sold directly to patients and home health agencies. The consideration was $367 million , net of cash acquired, which is subject to final working capital adjustments with the seller. The purchase price was allocated on a preliminary basis to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon our current estimate of their fair values at the date of acquisition. The purchase price exceeded the preliminary estimated fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets by $263 million , which was allocated to goodwill. The following table presents the preliminary estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed recognized as of the acquisition date. The fair value of intangibles from this acquisition was primarily determined by applying the income approach, using several significant unobservable inputs for projected cash flows and a discount rate. These inputs are considered Level 3 inputs. The allocation of purchase price to assets and liabilities acquired is not yet complete. Preliminary Fair Assets acquired: Current assets $ 62,902 Goodwill 263,155 Intangible assets 156,000 Noncurrent assets 3,615 Total assets 485,672 Liabilities assumed: Current liabilities 72,397 Noncurrent liabilities 46,706 Total liabilities 119,103 Fair value of net assets acquired, net of cash $ 366,569 We are amortizing the preliminary fair value of acquired intangible assets, primarily customer relationships and a tradename, over their estimated remaining weighted average useful lives of 10 years . Goodwill of $263 million , which we assigned to our Domestic segment, consists largely of expected opportunities to expand into the non-acute market with direct to patient distribution capabilities. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Pro forma results of operations for Byram has not been presented because the effects on revenue and net income were not material to our historic consolidated financial statements. Acquisition-related expenses in the current year consisted primarily of transaction costs incurred to perform due diligence and to analyze, negotiate and consummate the Byram acquisition, and costs to transition the acquired operations. We recognized pre-tax acquisition-related expenses of $3.1 million in 2017 related to these activities.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Debt	Debt We have $275 million of 3.875% senior notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”) and $275 million of 4.375% senior notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”), with interest payable semi-annually. The 2021 Notes were sold at 99.5% of the principal amount with an effective yield of 3.951% . The 2024 Notes were sold at 99.6% of the principal with an effective yield of 4.422% . We have the option to redeem the 2021 Notes and 2024 Notes in part or in whole prior to maturity at a redemption price equal to the greater of 100% of the principal amount or the present value of the remaining scheduled payments discounted at the Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the estimated fair value of the 2021 Notes was $280.1 million and $274.5 million and the estimated fair value of the 2024 Notes was $276.9 million and $270.0 million , respectively. On July 27, 2017, we entered into a new Credit Agreement replacing the Amended Credit Agreement. The new agreement provides borrowing capacity of $600 million and a $250 million term loan. We make principal payments under the term loan on a quarterly basis with the remaining outstanding principal due in five years. The revolving credit facility has a five -year maturity. The proceeds from the new borrowing were primarily used to fund the Byram acquisition which closed on August 1, 2017. Under the Credit Agreement, we have the ability to request two one -year extensions and to request an increase in aggregate commitments by up to $200 million . The interest rate on the Credit Agreement, which is subject to adjustment quarterly, is based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate, plus an adjustment based on the better of our debt ratings or leverage ratio (Credit Spread) as defined by the Credit Agreement. We are charged a commitment fee of between 12.5 and 25.0 basis points on the unused portion of the facility. The terms of the Credit Agreement limit the amount of indebtedness that we may incur and require us to maintain ratios for leverage and interest coverage, including on a pro forma basis in the event of an acquisition. Based on our leverage ratio at September 30, 2017, the interest rate under the credit facility is LIBOR plus 1.375% . At September 30, 2017, we had borrowings of $117.2 million under the revolver and letters of credit of approximately $5.1 million outstanding under the Credit Agreement, leaving $477.7 million available for borrowing. We also had a letter of credit outstanding for $1.3 million as of September 30, 2017 and $1.1 million at December 31, 2016, which supports our facilities leased in Europe. The Credit Agreement and senior notes contain cross-default provisions which could result in the acceleration of payments due in the event of default of either agreement. We believe we were in compliance with our debt covenants at September 30, 2017.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The effective tax rate was 48.1% and 34.3% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , compared to 36.3% and 37.3% in the same periods of 2016 . The changes in the effective tax rate compared to 2016 resulted primarily from a change in income mix among different tax rate jurisdictions and the effect of certain acquisition-related costs which were not deductible for tax purposes offset on a year to date basis by the release of an income tax valuation allowance in Europe for $3.4 million during the second quarter of 2017. The liability for unrecognized tax benefits was $13.3 million at September 30, 2017 , and $10.7 million at December 31, 2016 . Included in the liability at September 30, 2017 were $5.0 million of tax positions for which ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.

Equity [Abstract]
Shareholders' Equity	Shareholders’ Equity Our Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of up to $100 million of our outstanding common stock to be executed at the discretion of management over a three -year period, expiring in December 2019. The timing of repurchases and the exact number of shares of common stock to be purchased will depend upon market conditions and other factors and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Purchases under the share repurchase program are made either pursuant to 10b5-1 plans entered into by the company from time to time and/or during the company’s scheduled quarterly trading windows for officers and directors. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we repurchased in open-market transactions and retired approximately 0.2 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate of $5.0 million , or an average price per share of $32.27 . As of September 30, 2017, we have approximately $94.0 million remaining under the repurchase program. We have elected to allocate any excess of share repurchase price over par value to retained earnings.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Information	Segment Information We periodically evaluate our application of accounting guidance for reportable segments and disclose information about reportable segments based on the way management organizes the enterprise for making operating decisions and assessing performance. We report our business under three segments: Domestic, International and Proprietary Products. The Domestic segment includes our United States distribution, logistics and value-added services business. Byram, acquired on August 1, 2017, is included in the Domestic segment. The International segment consists of our European distribution, logistics and value-added services business. Proprietary Products provides product-related solutions, including surgical and procedural kitting and sourcing. We evaluate the performance of our segments based on their operating earnings excluding acquisition-related and exit and realignment charges, certain purchase price fair value adjustments, and other substantive items that, either as a result of their nature or size, would not be expected to occur as part of our normal business operations on a regular basis. Segment assets exclude inter-segment account balances as we believe their inclusion would be misleading or not meaningful. We believe all inter-segment sales are at prices that approximate market. The following tables present financial information by segment: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 2016 2017 2016 Net revenue: Segment net revenue Domestic $ 2,194,143 $ 2,287,233 $ 6,518,571 $ 6,954,687 International 96,661 83,751 287,555 255,861 Proprietary Products 124,542 132,705 392,654 409,022 Total segment net revenue $ 2,415,346 $ 2,503,689 $ 7,198,780 $ 7,619,570 Inter-segment revenue Proprietary Products (81,385 ) (88,088 ) (270,339 ) (264,501 ) Total inter-segment revenue (81,385 ) (88,088 ) (270,339 ) (264,501 ) Consolidated net revenue $ 2,333,961 $ 2,415,601 $ 6,928,441 $ 7,355,069 Operating earnings (loss): Domestic $ 36,056 $ 41,034 $ 102,812 $ 126,202 International (2,163 ) 1,382 (754 ) 3,402 Proprietary Products 9,102 14,340 26,040 41,866 Inter-segment eliminations 416 (449 ) (266 ) (905 ) Acquisition-related and exit and realignment charges (9,299 ) (2,739 ) (21,134 ) (19,974 ) Other (1) (4,441 ) — (8,674 ) — Consolidated operating earnings $ 29,671 $ 53,568 $ 98,024 $ 150,591 Depreciation and amortization: Domestic $ 9,602 $ 7,360 $ 23,233 $ 22,399 International 4,304 4,259 12,072 13,125 Proprietary Products 1,947 2,218 5,755 6,658 Consolidated depreciation and amortization $ 15,853 $ 13,837 $ 41,060 $ 42,182 Capital expenditures: Domestic $ 9,572 $ 3,071 $ 23,376 $ 10,274 International 3,206 3,223 11,659 8,053 Proprietary Products 718 1,009 2,754 2,436 Consolidated capital expenditures $ 13,496 $ 7,303 $ 37,789 $ 20,763 September 30, 2017 December 31, 2016 Total assets: Domestic $ 2,416,079 $ 1,778,481 International 418,331 352,898 Proprietary Products 401,331 400,885 Segment assets 3,235,741 2,532,264 Cash and cash equivalents 98,415 185,488 Consolidated total assets $ 3,334,156 $ 2,717,752 (1) Software as a Service (SaaS) implementation costs associated with the upgrading of our global IT platforms in connection with the redesign of our global information system strategy.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements On January 1, 2017, we adopted ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The amendments in this updated guidance included changes to simplify the Codification for several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. As a result of this adoption, we recognized $0.1 million and $ 0.3 million in excess tax benefits in the income statement for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. In addition, we recorded these tax benefits related to stock based compensation for the nine month period in operating activities in the statements of cash flows and reclassified $0.7 million from financing activities in the prior period to conform to this presentation. In May 2014, the FASB issued an ASU, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . The amended guidance eliminates industry specific guidance and applies to all companies. Revenue will be recognized when an entity satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a promised good or service to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled for that good or service. Revenue from a contract that contains multiple performance obligations is allocated to each performance obligation generally on a relative standalone selling price basis. Amended guidance was issued on: principal versus agent considerations, shipping and handling activities that occur after the customer has obtained control of a good as an activity to fulfill the promise to transfer the good, clarification on how an entity should evaluate the collectibility threshold and when an entity can recognize nonrefundable consideration received as revenue if an arrangement does not meet the standard’s contract criteria. The amended guidance also requires additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures. These amended standards are all effective for us beginning January 1, 2018 and allow for either full retrospective adoption or modified retrospective adoption (cumulative effect). We have substantially completed our evaluation of the amended guidance, including identification of revenue streams and customer contract reviews. Our revenue is primarily distribution revenue, which we recognize at the time shipment is completed and title passes to the customer. Although we are continuing to assess the impact of the amended guidance, including impact on financial disclosures, we generally anticipate that the timing of recognition of distribution revenue will be substantially unchanged under the amended guidance. We intend to use the modified retrospective method of adoption. We are finalizing our evaluation of how the guidance may require changes to our business processes, systems and controls to support the additional required disclosures. There has been no change in our significant accounting policies from those contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 .

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Subsequent Events On October 31, 2017, we entered into a Purchase Agreement to acquire the Surgical and Infection Prevention (“S&IP”) business of Halyard Health, Inc. ("Halyard") for $710 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments as provided in the Purchase Agreement. Halyard’s S&IP business is a leading global provider of medical supplies and solutions for the prevention of healthcare-associated infections across the acute and alternate site channels. The transaction, which has been approved by the boards of directors of both companies, is expected to close in the first quarter of 2018, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals, including Hart-Scott-Rodino.

Basis of Presentation and Use26

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2017
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Owens & Minor, Inc. and the subsidiaries it controls (we, us, or our) and contain all adjustments (which are comprised only of normal recurring accruals and use of estimates) necessary to conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. The Clinical & Procedural Solutions (CPS) business segment has been renamed "Proprietary Products" effective January 1, 2017. Byram Healthcare (Byram), acquired on August 1, 2017, is included in the Domestic segment. There have been no other changes to the segment composition or our method of measuring segment operating earnings.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make assumptions and estimates that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Fair Value	The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, financing receivables, accounts payable and financing payables included in the consolidated balance sheets approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market (Level 1) or, if quoted market prices or dealer quotes are not available, on the borrowing rates currently available for loans with similar terms, credit ratings and average remaining maturities (Level 2). We determine the fair value of our derivatives, if any, based on estimated amounts that would be received or paid to terminate the contracts at the reporting date based on current market prices for applicable currencies. See Note 8 for the fair value of long-term debt.
Share Repurchase	Our Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of up to $100 million of our outstanding common stock to be executed at the discretion of management over a three -year period, expiring in December 2019. The timing of repurchases and the exact number of shares of common stock to be purchased will depend upon market conditions and other factors and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Purchases under the share repurchase program are made either pursuant to 10b5-1 plans entered into by the company from time to time and/or during the company’s scheduled quarterly trading windows for officers and directors. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we repurchased in open-market transactions and retired approximately 0.2 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate of $5.0 million , or an average price per share of $32.27 . As of September 30, 2017, we have approximately $94.0 million remaining under the repurchase program. We have elected to allocate any excess of share repurchase price over par value to retained earnings.
Segment Reporting	We periodically evaluate our application of accounting guidance for reportable segments and disclose information about reportable segments based on the way management organizes the enterprise for making operating decisions and assessing performance. We report our business under three segments: Domestic, International and Proprietary Products. The Domestic segment includes our United States distribution, logistics and value-added services business. Byram, acquired on August 1, 2017, is included in the Domestic segment. The International segment consists of our European distribution, logistics and value-added services business. Proprietary Products provides product-related solutions, including surgical and procedural kitting and sourcing. We evaluate the performance of our segments based on their operating earnings excluding acquisition-related and exit and realignment charges, certain purchase price fair value adjustments, and other substantive items that, either as a result of their nature or size, would not be expected to occur as part of our normal business operations on a regular basis. Segment assets exclude inter-segment account balances as we believe their inclusion would be misleading or not meaningful. We believe all inter-segment sales are at prices that approximate market.
