Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Data Segment Data
The Company's organizational structure is based upon three principal business segments: BD Medical (“Medical”), BD Life Sciences (“Life Sciences”) and BD Interventional ("Interventional"). The Company’s segments are strategic businesses that are managed separately because each one develops, manufactures and markets distinct products and services.
Medical
Medical produces a broad array of medical technologies and devices that are used to help improve healthcare delivery in a wide range of settings. The primary customers served by Medical are hospitals and clinics; physicians’ office practices; consumers and retail pharmacies; governmental and nonprofit public health
agencies; pharmaceutical companies; and healthcare workers. Medical consists of the following organizational units:
Organizational Unit
 
Principal Product Lines
Medication Delivery Solutions
 
Peripheral intravenous ("IV") catheters (conventional, safety); advanced peripheral catheters (guidewire assisted peripherally inserted venous catheters, midline catheters, port access); central lines (peripherally inserted central catheters); acute dialysis catheters; vascular access technology (ultrasonic imaging); vascular care (lock solutions, prefilled flush syringes, disinfecting caps); vascular preparation (skin antiseptics, dressings, securement); needle-free IV connectors and extensions sets; closed-system drug transfer devices; hazardous drug detection; conventional and safety hypodermic syringes and needles, anesthesia needles (spinal, epidural) and trays; enteral syringes, sharps disposal systems.
Medication Management Solutions
 
IV medication safety and infusion therapy delivery systems, including infusion pumps, dedicated disposables, and IV fluids; medication compounding workflow systems; automated medication dispensing; automated supply management systems; medication inventory optimization and tracking systems; and informatics and
analytics solutions for enterprise medication management.
Diabetes Care
 
Syringes, pen needles and other products related to the injection or infusion of insulin and other drugs used in the treatment of diabetes.
Pharmaceutical Systems
 
Prefillable drug delivery systems - prefillable syringes, safety, shielding and self-injection systems and support services - provided to pharmaceutical companies for use as containers for injectable pharmaceutical products, which are then placed on the market as drug/device combinations.
Life Sciences
Life Sciences provides products for the safe collection and transport of diagnostics specimens, and instruments and reagent systems to detect a broad range of infectious diseases, healthcare-associated infections (“HAIs”) and cancers. In addition, Life Sciences produces research and clinical tools that facilitate the study of cells, and the components of cells, to gain a better understanding of normal and disease processes. That information is used to aid the discovery and development of new drugs and vaccines, and to improve the diagnosis and management of diseases. The primary customers served by Life Sciences are hospitals, laboratories and clinics; blood banks; healthcare workers; public health agencies; physicians’ office practices; retail pharmacies; academic and government institutions; and pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. Life Sciences consists of the following organizational units:
Organizational Unit
 
Principal Product Lines
Preanalytical Systems
 
Integrated systems for specimen collection; and safety-engineered blood collection products and systems.
Diagnostic Systems
 
Automated blood culturing and tuberculosis culturing systems; molecular testing systems for infectious diseases and women’s health; microorganism identification and drug susceptibility systems; liquid-based cytology systems for cervical cancer screening; rapid diagnostic assays for testing of respiratory infections; microbiology laboratory automation and plated media for clinical and industrial applications.
Biosciences
 
Fluorescence-activated cell sorters and analyzers; antibodies and kits for performing cell analysis; reagent systems for life science research; solutions for high-throughput single-cell gene expression analysis; and clinical oncology, immunological (HIV) and transplantation diagnostic/monitoring reagents and analyzers.
Effective October 1, 2019, Life Sciences joined its Preanalytical Systems and Diagnostic Systems organizational units to create a new Integrated Diagnostic Solutions organizational unit which will focus on driving growth and innovation around integrated specimen management to diagnostic solutions. The new Integrated Diagnostic Solution organizational unit will consist of the following principal product lines:
Organizational Unit
 
Principal Product Lines

Integrated systems for specimen collection; safety-engineered blood collection products and systems; automated blood culturing and tuberculosis culturing systems; molecular testing systems for infectious diseases and women’s health; microorganism identification and drug susceptibility systems; liquid-based cytology systems for cervical cancer screening; rapid diagnostic assays for testing of respiratory infections; microbiology laboratory automation and plated media for clinical and industrial applications.
Interventional
Interventional provides vascular, urology, oncology and surgical specialty products that are, with the exception of the V. Muller surgical and laparoscopic instrumentation products, intended to be used once and then discarded or are either temporarily or permanently implanted. The primary customers served by Interventional are hospitals, individual healthcare professionals, extended care facilities, alternate site facilities and patients via the segment's Homecare business. The Interventional segment consists of the following organizational units:
Organizational Unit
 
Principal Product Lines

Urology and Critical Care
 
Urine management devices, urological drainage products, intermittent catheters, kidney stone management devices, Targeted Temperature Management, and fecal management devices.
Additional Segment Information
Distribution of products is primarily through independent distribution channels, and directly to end-users by BD and independent sales representatives. No customer accounted for 10% or more of revenues in any of the three years presented.
Segment disclosures are on a performance basis consistent with internal management reporting. The Company evaluates performance of its business segments and allocates resources to them primarily based upon operating income, which represents revenues reduced by product costs and operating expenses. Beginning with its first quarter fiscal year 2018, the Company changed its management reporting approach so that certain general and administrative costs, which were previously allocated to the segments, are now excluded from the segments' operating expenses. The Medical and Life Sciences segments' operating income for the year ended September 30, 2017 included allocated general corporate costs of $166 million and $113 million, respectively. No such allocations were made in the year ended September 30, 2019 or September 30, 2018.
Financial information for the Company’s segments is detailed below. The Company has no material intersegment revenues.  As discussed in Note 10, the Company completed its acquisition of Bard on December 29, 2017. Bard's operating results were included in the Company’s consolidated results of operations beginning on January 1, 2018.
