Carepoint FAQs

A GPO combines the buying power of all our members, making it possible for each of our members to have lower pricing because of the large group’s power to negotiate discounts with top vendors.

You do have to turn in an application, giving Carepoint authority to connect you to the contracts we have available. There may be additional paperwork if you are already connected to a different GPO, or if required by a specific vendor (i.e. credit application). Still, you are not committing to a term. You may leave Carepoint at any time.

No, Carepoint will let your contracted vendors know you are now a Carepoint member. We will work with these vendors to connect you to our contracts. The only change in how you are currently purchasing will be the price of the products you order!
