In the past, group purchasing organizations sought to sign up as many hospitals as possible. The purchasing power of these organizations is often quite impressive. However, unless these groups enhance market share for the manufacturers, they cannot expect significant price breaks. The quality, compliance, of the group is, therefore, as important as the membership numbers. The author details quality assessment criteria for members of group purchasing organizations and recommends their review by both members and non-members alike. This assessment focusing on both internal and external factors will indicate the hospital's value to a purchasing group and, by extension, the material manager's benefit to the hospital.
过去，团购组织试图吸纳尽可能多的医院。这些组织的购买力往往相当可观。然而，除非这些团体提高制造商的市场份额，否则他们别指望能获得大幅价格优惠。因此，该团体的质量、合规性与成员数量同样重要。作者详细阐述了团购组织成员的质量评估标准，并建议成员和非成员都对其进行审查。这种兼顾内部和外部因素的评估将表明医院对采购团体的价值，进而表明物资经理对医院的益处。
