A. Currently several large Group Purchasing Organizations (GPOs) (Amerinet, Consorta, Novation, Premier and MedAssets) representing the critical mass of the healthcare market have assigned Global Location Numbers (GLNs) to their members. GS1 US is presenting an educational suite of web seminars where providers and suppliers will learn more about global supply chain identification. Information about these one hour educational sessions is available on the Healthcare Education page. GS1 US is also presenting this program at various other industry and GPO meetings. The GPOs will have their own rollout plans. Please contact your GPO for more information.
