Fiona Chew – Director of Account Management
International Innovation Case Study – Entry of a US GPO into UK Healthcare Purchasing
US GPO Landscape
• Group Purchasing Organisations – aggregate purchasing volumes of US healthcare organisations to utilise leverage and negotiate effective contracts.
• First US GPO created 1910. Numbers grew slowly until last quarter of 20th C.
• Nearly every hospital facility in the US now uses the services of at least one GPO.
• Period of consolidation in the market. • Some “shopping around” by facilities to find the best GPO• Top 4 GPOs account for $155bn purchasing spend.• Saturated market – further consolidation and vertical
integration expected.
HealthTrust Purchasing Group (HPG)
• Established in 1999
• Commonly listed as 4th largest US GPO (following MedAssets, Premier & Novation)
• Headquartered in Brentwood, Tennessee (Nashville)
HealthTrust Purchasing Group (HPG)
• Manage over 1200+ supplier agreements representing over $21B of annual contracting volume
• Serves as the exclusive Group Purchasing Organization for over 4000 USA healthcare facilities
• Approximately 25% (1400) of the hospitals in the USA utilize HealthTrust as their sole Group Purchasing Organization
• Broad contract portfolio with “One Price For All” philosophy
• Customer focused - 99% customer retention rate
• 7-12% price advantage over other GPOs
• Acquisition of Consorta GPO - 2011
Horizontal Integration: HPG Innovation Enters the UK
• 1st April 2011 – HPG established “HealthTrust Europe”
• Formed via the purchase of Healthcare Purchasing Consortium – an NHS collaborative procurement hub.
• Jointly owned by HPG and HCA International
• HCA International - owner of 6 private hospitals in the UK e.g. London Bridge Hospital and 3 joint ventures with the NHS e.g. Harley Street at UCLH
• UK – strategic market entry

HPG Worldwide Locations
We are global in scope– Headquarters for HCA, Parallon and HealthTrust
Purchasing Group are based in the U.S.– HealthTrust Global Sourcing office based in
Shanghai, China– HealthTrust Europe based in Birmingham, with
offices in London
• Members are expected to maintain a highly committed relationship with HTE by avoiding:– Self contracting efforts– Use of non-HTE services when service is available from
HTE– Use of other group purchasing organizations
• US GPO model is funded on basis of vendor admin fees– Small percentage fee paid by contracted vendors – Permitted by US “Safe Harbor” regulations– Admin fee is paid when a member uses the contract– Surpluses are repaid to members– Same model applied to creation of HealthTrust Europe– Enabled lower member “subscription” fees
• Innovative model = challenge to suppliers = pockets of resistance
Member Alignment & Vendor Administration Fees
European Expansion
• HealthTrust Europe = Strategic launch point for HPG into Europe
• Germany – strong existing GPO landscape
• Poland – no collaborative purchasing
• Challenge – local infrastructure, language barriers
