"GPOs are buying exclusivity at the risk of innovation, at the risk of cost, at the risk of lives of patients,”

Makan Delrahim, JD, Former Assistant Attorney General, United States


“It’s hard to measure the impact of the GPO barrier in discouraging entrepreneurs and inventors to develop innovative medical technologies. It’s allowed because the GPO/hospital lobby and their allies have bought and/or intimidated the United States Congress,”

Phillip Zweig, Journalist & Author


Known GPO anticompetitive business practices include: 

• Collecting excessively high contract administrative fees

• Sole-source contracting or contracting with only one vendor for a given product when multiple vendors of comparable products are available;

• Product bundling or linking price discounts to purchases of a specified group of products; and

• Limiting customer access to new and innovative technology
