A longtime leader in healthcare improvement, we’re developing new ways to revolutionize the industry.
Group Purchasing
Survey insights from a broad cross section of healthcare and supply chain leaders inform Premier's 2023 Supply Chain Resiliency Guide, to support decision-making on risk prevention and mitigation strategies, as well as comprehensive recommendations for advancing a stronger supply chain.
Should we have a title?
As a leading healthcare improvement company, Premier’s Group Purchasing Organization unites an alliance of approximately 4,350 US hospitals and health systems to optimize supply chain spend, support resiliency and drive clinical supply chain integration.
Health systems expect more out of their GPO today — with U.S. healthcare leaders ranking GPOs as the most valuable source of information on product shortages, according to Premier’s 2023 survey.
Premier’s GPO is a driver of overall value – having created one of the most comprehensive databases of actionable data, clinical best practices and efficiency improvement strategies. Our unparalleled technology and real-world insights provide the framework for agile, member-led co-innovation, where we help you at every level of healthcare, together. From the interception of antibiotic-resistant infections with at-risk patients, introducing supply chain sophistication and simplification strategies, to approval processes and curing illnesses faster, our real-world evidence can help you every step of the way.
Ninety-nine percent of C-suite members agree they’re “better positioned for the future with Premier," and having been named one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies® by Ethisphere® 16 years in a row, we are proven and committed to helping your health system thrive for the long term.
We recognize that healthcare providers are operating in a more complex landscape than ever before as they continue to address labor challenges, cost pressures and a still-fragile supply chain – all while working to implement large-scale changes in an increasingly competitive and value-based environment.
By working with Premier to optimize expenses, health systems are able to invest more into the communities they serve. We work hard for our members with the aim to exceed cost savings goals.
