DCH Health System, based in Tuscaloosa, Ala., chose Medline as its primary distribution partner April 11 after working with another company for about 20 years.
A DCH Health spokesperson told Becker's its previous partner was Cardinal Health.
The new, yearslong partnership will ensure medical supplies for DCH Health's three acute care facilities: DCH Regional Medical Center in Tuscaloosa, Northport (Ala.) Medical Center and Fayette (Ala.) Medical Center, according to a Medline news release.
