Addison, Texas-based United Surgical Partners International and Mundelein, Ill.-based Medline Industries have signed a five-year partnership for supply distribution estimated to be worth $275 million.
The agreement, the second the companies have made together, is projected to save $7 million throughout the five-year timeframe of the partnership across more than 200 ambulatory surgical facilities around the country.
In addition to providing USPI with products, Medline will help the organization's associated centers improve product standardization and reporting capabilities.
