What People Are Saying About Us
Jim Mcmanus
Former - Senior Vice President & Chief Financial Officer at Multicare
“Running a healthcare system is about dealing with priorities and managing risk. We all have stories of companies, both large and small, where we’ve taken a chance. While we can’t look at everyone out there, we know that there are companies with new technologies, better value and comparable quality to the market share leaders. We know we can rely on HealthCare Links to help vet out those Companies that will help bring value to our system.”
Jay Kirkpatrick
VP Supply Chain Operations, Lifepoint
“Healthcare Links has been a trusted source for bringing valued products and solutions to me over the years. Their relationships and integrity assure me that the clients they represent are well vetted and, in many cases, provide new technology, savings and better patient care to our team for consideration.”
Dave Edwards
Retired VP Premier
“We get calls and inquiries from hundreds of vendors who are interested in a relationship with Premier. In some cases, they are a good fit for a partnership, or at least for a contractual relationship. In most cases, they are not. As a result, I rely on a handful of companies and people to help us “vet” these potential opportunities, and to bring us the ones that they know, based on their years of experience in this industry, would be worth the time and worth the effort for us to begin discussions. I would put Healthcare Links at the top of that list.
The principals there are smart, knowledgeable, experienced, ethical, and tenacious; Moreover, they have a track record both with Premier and with the entire industry that gives them , and any company that they represent, instant credibility with me and with my organization.
I can recommend them, as a company and as individuals, if your goal is to understand, and then grow, within the dynamic American healthcare landscape.”
Dave Gilfillan
Director, Supply Chain Operations, Williamson Medical Center
“Healthcare today is more challenging than ever. The pressure on cost savings is important but we can’t sacrifice quality. Healthcare Links has consistently presented us opportunities that meet our needs and our goals. We value their business relationship because we know they have done their homework—matching our needs to the value their clients can bring.”
Timothy H. Emo
Vice President | Vernacare Inc., Vernacare Canada Inc
“Healthcare Links have proven themselves to be a tremendous asset to Vernacare’s growing success in the US market. Their longstanding relationships with all of the major groups & networks have opened doors that we were unable to open on our own and nothing is a greater testimony to their level of success than the four national agreements we have recently secured. If your firm lacks GPO agreements, and visibility with distribution partners, then you should be speaking with Healthcare Links!”
Sean Poellnitz
Former - Chief Resource Officer, Renown Healthcare
“The industry is envious of the type of organization that you have built.. The unselfish collaboration of your team and the ability for you to connect your clients IDNs and GPOs with instant credibility is amazing. That credibility has been established by consistently providing results in challenging climates notwithstanding being smart enough to protect your relationships at all cost. Healthcare Links is a living legacy that embodies the blueprint and gold standard for supplier/provider relationships in out healthcare era.”
Chris Fashek
Chairman of MedTech Solutions group,
Chairman of NanoVibronix, and former COB at Spiracur and Systagenix. Also was the former CEO at KCI USA
“Healthcare Links owns the space at the intersection of suppliers, IDN’s, and GPO’s. They take the time to understand a Manufacturers’s product and service offerings, and guide the supplier through the complex arena of today’s supply chain.
Respected by GPO’s leadership and multiple IDN organizations, the Healthcare links team opens doors that most suppliers don’t have the contacts or people to reach.
Ken Murawski has assembled a team of experienced Healthcare professionals that operate seamlessly in the supply chain space executing winning strategies with the highest levels of integrity and trust.
I have personally teamed with Healthcare Links with exceptional results in a very short timeline. If you need a supply chain strategy, guidance or execution you would do well to forge a relationship with Healthcare Links.”
Laura Polson
UL Health System Director of Clinical Value Analysis
Within the role of the healthcare value analysis professional is the continual search for better patient outcomes through improved quality and reduced expense. Healthcare Links is a valued partner in this search for superior products as well as those which support us through device recalls and global shortages. Their leadership in Ken Murawski is one of compassion, caring and integrity. His team is aligned with his mission, and they work endlessly to vet the opportunities which make the most sense for both the manufacturer and the provider. We look to Healthcare Links to bring to us new players in the market who have yet to become national GPO contract suppliers and allow rapid assimilation of new technology into our clinical practices. Healthcare Links team is a trusted tool in our Value Analysis toolbox!
Eric McGlade
CEO & Co-Founder of VPL
Healthcare Links has been an integral part of our sales team for more than 2 years and have been a great resource. Maria Hames, and the entire team, have an incredible network that you would expect from a sales partner like Healthcare Links. Maria has seamlessly integrated with our sales team’s workflow and meeting cadence, offering support and market insights. The entire Healthcare Links team are professional and always willing to engage. I highly recommend them, whether you’re a relatively small company looking to break into the healthcare market or a more established supplier that needs a fresh perspective.
