Affiliation and partnership opportunities for your pharmacy or practice
Connect with McKesson Pharmaceutical Distribution.
We offer our pharmacy and specialty medical practice customers access to a variety of flexible and scalable affiliation and partnership models that best fit your unique pharmaceutical purchasing needs now and into the future. Our models include group purchasing organizations (GPOs), retail pharmacy buying groups, pharmacy services administration organizations (PSAOs) and an exclusive online community pharmacy peer group.
Group purchasing organizations and retail buying groups
Our pharmaceutical GPOs leverage the collective purchasing of our pharmacy and specialty medical practice customers to obtain discounts and competitive prices from drug manufacturers, vendors and suppliers.
Our retail pharmacy buying groups negotiate discounts and competitive prices from manufacturers, vendors and suppliers on behalf of independent retail pharmacies. Maximize the value of your drug and merchandising purchases by tapping into the power of our buying groups.
Health Mart Atlas, PSAO for community pharmacies
Health Mart Atlas PSAO is the largest network of high-performing ISMC pharmacies, providing access to narrow networks through strategic contracting, increased pharmacy efficiencies, and the tools to remain top pharmacy performers.
Connect Community pharmacy peer group
Join your peers in our exclusive Connect Community pharmacy peer group. Share insights, ask questions and collaborate with other McKesson customers in our online pharmacy platform.
