Although the personal protective equipment (PPE) market has somewhat stabilized from where it was six months to a year ago, healthcare entities and others still face challenges in procuring some items, and cost is still a significant issue. As part of its continuing efforts to connect Massachusetts healthcare organizations with high-quality PPE, MHA recently partnered with the new wholesale medical supplier and distributor –
bttn (pronounced “button”).
The company aims to provide a long-term solution beyond the COVID-19 crisis for improving access to medical supply products at the manufacturing price for organizations of all sizes. Bttn has established relationships with manufacturers, a partnership with UPS, and access to nationwide warehousing.
MHA will be hosting an informational webinar led by bttn on Wednesday, April 14 at 1 p.m. JT Garwood, CEO of bttn, will provide an overview of the company, walk through the group purchasing process, and answer questions. Registration for this free webinar is
available here; it is open to MHA members and non-members.
Following the webinar, bttn will open up the first bulk purchase opportunity for healthcare providers in Massachusetts for a limited time, from April 14-23. Use this code at checkout to receive 10% off your total purchase: MAPPE1. The company accepts all forms of payment, including credit, wire transfers, purchase orders, and net terms.
