An unmatched investment in resources
to serve our members.

With escalating operational costs, purchasing factors prominently into business operations, in some cases comprising as much as 80 percent of a pharmacy’s cost structure. Managing purchasing effectively is critical to operational success and optimal patient care.

With group purchasing as the core of our diversified healthcare services offerings, Managed Health Care Associates, Inc. (MHA) negotiates with more than 500 manufacturers and suppliers to provide over 900 contracts covering 26 classes of trade for our 5,800 members.

It’s not simply that MHA is the largest alternate care group purchasing organization (GPO), we are also the most focused, offering class-of-trade specific services and support. Our dedicated account management support, software and data management tools, and extended services meet the varied and complex needs of our members.

Next Steps


Purchasing can in some cases comprise as much as 80 percent of a pharmacy’s cost structure. MHA can help reduce that number by up to 15 percent compared with not using the services of a GPO.
