Date:3/13/2008

DUBLIN, Ohio, March 13 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cardinal Health, a global provider of products and services that improve the safety and productivity of health care, today announced the appointment of company veteran Michael C.

In this role, Kaufmann, 45, will be responsible for Cardinal Health's largest business, which provides logistics services to pharmaceutical manufacturers, distributes approximately one-third of all medicine prescribed in the U.S. to hospitals, pharmacies and other providers of care, operates the nation's leading network of specialized nuclear pharmacies and is the largest franchisor of pharmacies in the U.S.

Kaufmann was most recently responsible for the turnaround of Cardinal Health's medical supply chain business and has spent the majority of his 17- year career with the company in senior operational, sales and finance roles within the pharmaceutical business.

He replaces Scott A. Storrer, who will leave the company later this month. Kaufmann will continue to report to George S. Barrett, 52, vice chairman of Cardinal Health and CEO of the company's Healthcare Supply Chain Services sector.

Kaufmann graduated from Ohio Northern University with a d
