ABOUT HSCA
What is a GPO?
A group purchasing organization (GPO) is an entity that helps healthcare providers — such as hospitals, nursing homes and home health agencies — realize savings and efficiencies by aggregating purchasing volume and using that leverage to negotiate discounts with manufacturers, distributors and other vendors. Find out why our GPO members are valued partners in healthcare.
Issues
From generic drug prices to cybersecurity, from drug shortages to global standards, GPOs are working to help ensure that hospitals and other healthcare providers can deliver uninterrupted, high-quality care to the patients they serve.
Resources
GPOs are the sourcing and purchasing partners to American healthcare providers and deliver critical cost savings to hospitals, Medicare and Medicaid, and taxpayers.
Events
Since 1990, HSCA has evolved into one of the industry’s most influential health care policy & advocacy organizations.
