SOMERSET, N.J, Oct. 26, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MTBC (Nasdaq: MTBC) (Nasdaq: MTBCP), a leading provider of proprietary, cloud-based healthcare IT and practice management solutions today announced that it has entered into a new group purchasing contract with one of the world’s top five pharmaceutical manufacturers. This new affiliation will allow the members of MTBC’s group purchasing organization (GPO) to purchase critical vaccines for their practices at a negotiated discount.
“We’re pleased to now offer our clients vaccine discounts with 3 of the world’s top 5 pharmaceutical manufacturers,” said Al Nardi, VP Strategic Initiatives for MTBC. Nardi added, “We’re extending these significant discounts at no cost to our clients, and encouraging all other U.S. based physicians who purchase vaccines to join the MTBC family so they can start saving on the cost of the very same vaccines they already purchase.”
This new group purchasing contract has expanded the offering of vaccines to MTBC’s clients at the special discounted rate that MTBC has negotiated with the manufacturer. As part of a recent acquisition, MTBC acquired the GPO, which enables thousands of physician members to purchase vaccines from leading pharmaceutical companies at discounted rates.
The GPO is an essential component of MTBC’s initiative to improve healthcare performance improvement through its full suite of services including revenue cycle management, practice management, and innovative healthcare IT offerings. “We continually look for new and creative ways to address the needs of our clients and increase the value we can offer them,” stated Nardi.
