    We have a relationship with a small health system about 200 miles north of us that wants to access our supply contracts. There's no formal affiliation with them. I've heard that some GPOs allow this if there is a business agreement between the hospitals. Anyone doing this? What are the legal pitfalls? Is your purchasing staff buying, shipping to and then billing the other hospital? What does the business agreement entail?
