PSMA Connect, a Healthcare Group Purchasing Organisation (GPO), and HealthIQ Solutions, a provider of remote patient care management and clinical technology, said on Monday that they have formed a new strategic provider alliance.

This alliance unite PSMA Connect's extensive supply chain cost savings with HealthIQ Solutions' continuous remote patient monitoring programs to help empower healthcare providers, optimise practice revenue, and improve clinical outcomes nationwide.

The companies say that their joint initiative addresses two of the most pressing challenges facing healthcare practices today: escalating operational costs, and the need for proactive, continuous care models. Through this partnership, medical practices and health systems gain access to significant volume-discounted pricing on essential medical-surgical supplies, equipment, pharmaceuticals, and vaccines, while simultaneously deploying turn-key Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM), Chronic Care Management (CCM), Advanced Primary Care Management (APCM) and specialised remote care solutions.
