December 1, 2020 – CME Corp (Warwick, RI) announced two new contracts with HealthTrust Purchasing Group, LP (Nashville, TN).
The pair of agreements include distribution for capital purchases from CME’s vast portfolio, as well as direct-to-site “white glove” services covering a facility’s needs from start to finish, including receiving, inspecting, warehousing, assembling, and installing.
The contracts are for HealthTrust’s Acute Care & National Surgery Center Group and Affiliates & Non-Acute Care Facilities & Affiliates units. One contract is for three years, while the other contract includes a two-year option to extend, creating a potential five-year deal.
“The two contracts will give HealthTrust members access to CME’s unmatched ability to provide savings and efficiencies on medical equipment and delivery services throughout the U.S.,” said K.C. Meleski, CME vice president of sales. “We’re excited their members now have access to our nationwide best-in-class, direct-to-site white-glove delivery services, which allow healthcare providers to reduce costs by consolidating and streamlining the logistics required to manage their needs.”
“CME Corp has tripled in size in five years, and we are looking to grow just as fast in the coming years,” added Meleski. “We are confident these new contracts will help facilitate our surging growth as HealthTrust’s membership includes five of the USA’s top seven integrated delivery networks (IDNs), enabling us to continue delivering our services to every corner of the country.”
