to the home page of Medical Supply Chain, Inc. (MSC). As you take
a moment and browse through our web content you will find something extremely
unique about our company; we really are committed to serving health care
communities with the latest in services and technology that reduce supply chain cost and
increase efficiencies among suppliers. Since our launch in May 2000 MSC has developed
supply chain services that Group Purchasing Organizations (GPO's) among other industry leaders acknowledge
will save health care over $80 Billion dollars annually. Unfortunately our health care
system knows very little about these services and technologies. WHY?
Shortly after e-commerce emerged in the health care arena GPO’s, manufacturers
and
distributors rushed in and acquired interest in these companies
only to minimize the threat technology would have on their
market control and profits. As if this wasn’t enough, they also used their
influence to keep potential marketplace competitors from entering the
market and thus maintaining their stranglehold on competition and
distribution. Their influence extended to financial firms who they
persuaded to limit investments in potential market competitors. This untold story is tragic and has
recently been aided by our U.S. courts unwillingness to enforce antitrust laws.
GPO’s, manufacturers
and distributors continue to exploit free and open markets to improve their own position in
health care yet don’t seem willing to allow providers to do the same. Health
care providers can no longer tolerate this abhorrent situation and as a result
fail to gain any significant or sustainable cost reduction in the products
and services that they purchase. What health systems need most is to regain
control over their supply chain and exploit the competitive opportunities that inherently exist
in health care. MSC “Empowers” the solutions that health systems need to
lower operational cost.
The mission of MSC is simple empower supply
chain solutions that health systems need and can rely on. Join MSC and
empower a competitive supply chain, the future of affordable health care depends
on it. Just point and click to learn more about Medical
