Description

This directory is a comprehensive reference work of health care purchasing entities that negotiate more than 65% of all health care products purchased by hospitals and related facilities, as well as the institutions they represent.

Listings not only include Group Purchasing Organizations, but also other types of organizations that make volume health care purchases, including: multi-hospital corporations, multi-nursing home corporations, alliances, provider management companies, physicians' offices, and integrated delivery networks.

Recent years have brought tremendous changes to the business side of health care, including consolidations of health care organizations and the closing of many organizations' doors.

As a result, the universe of Group Purchasing Organizations (GPOs) is smaller than in years past, but the lists of Member Institutions, for which each GPO manages purchasing, have grown.

This edition reflects this change in the industry, with 633 Group Purchasing Organizations in the United States and CanadaaEURO"-13 more than the last editionaEURO"-and over 12,000 Member Institutions.
