Cross industry collaboration is critical to addressing the issues related to the healthcare supply chain. Since the beginning of the pandemic, industries across the healthcare continuum worked together to ensure timely and quality patient care. As we move forward, the Healthcare Supply Chain Association, along with our GPO members, established a new affiliate membership program, HSCA Connect, to build on the interdependent work of GPOs and catalyze further collaboration.

Applications will be reviewed by the HSCA Board of Directors on a quarterly basis.

Mission

To provide a healthy forum of members to improve the industry, through dialogue, addressing key market issues, select research and provide
educational programs that will lead to increased efficiencies in the delivery of goods, products and services to healthcare providers and positively impact the quality and value of patient care.
