From the Lobby!

This week’s survey asked:

The below statement reflects my feelings about National Distributors buying product companies.

A. This is good for Hospitals/IDNs and their patients. 0%
B. This is necessary for Distributors to stay profitable. 22%
C. This is necessary for Dist. to compete with self-distributing IDNs. 13%
D. This is Dist. attempt to continue the strategy of private labeling. 56%
E. Other (please specify) 9%

Surprisingly, no one thought Distributors buying product companies is good for the provider or patients. The vast majority of respondents believe it is a play by Distribution to further their private label programs.

Let me know what you think of these results at email me.
