Industry Realities

What Makes This Industry Different

Healthcare has compliance requirements that most merch vendors don't understand, or get wrong.

Sunshine Act & Anti-Kickback

Gifts to healthcare providers must comply with Open Payments reporting and anti-kickback statutes. We maintain compliant catalogs with value caps and educational-use classifications.

HIPAA-Aware Workflows

Our fulfillment process never requires PHI. For patient engagement programs, we provide workflows where your team controls recipient data, and we handle production and shipping.

Vendor Approval Timelines

Healthcare procurement can take 3-6 months. We provide insurance certificates, compliance documentation, and HIPAA BAA templates upfront to accelerate approvals.

Multi-Site Health Systems

Programs spanning hospitals, clinics, and administrative offices need centralized controls with local execution. We support multi-location distribution with site-level reporting.

Common Questions

Common Questions

We maintain product catalogs classified by value and use case. Items designated for HCPs are flagged with Open Payments reporting requirements. We enforce value caps automatically and provide detailed reports for your compliance team.

No. Our standard fulfillment never requires protected health information. For patient-facing programs, your team manages recipient data and we handle production and blind shipping.

Yes. We have HIPAA Business Associate Agreement templates ready for execution. While our standard process doesn't involve PHI, we provide BAAs for organizations that require them as part of vendor onboarding.

We manage distribution across all your facilities: hospitals, clinics, admin offices. Each site can order within centralized guidelines, with site-level and system-wide reporting for your operations team.

We source products appropriate for healthcare settings with relevant safety documentation. For clinical areas, we recommend items that meet infection control and safety standards specific to your facility requirements.

We provide all procurement documentation upfront to accelerate the process. With our proactive documentation package (insurance, compliance, BAA), most health systems complete vendor approval in 6-10 weeks.
