IBSA is an organization that has been growing and adapting substantially, and in a rapidly changing environment such as health-care, that is crucial to success,&#8221; said Rodney White, vice president of national account sales for IBSA.<\/p>\n<p>Among other considerations, Premier selected IBSA based on its ability to provide cost-saving programs, as well as develop a comprehensive, customized support structure to monitor and measure every aspect of the program. In addition, all IBSA affiliate representatives will be required to complete a comprehensive health-care certification before they are able to work with Premier members.<\/p>\n<p>Said Mark McKinney, IBSA&#8217;s president and CEO, &#8220;These types of contracts are precisely why IBSA has been growing so steadily. As a national alliance, we can offer organizations like Premier sbstantial benefits and cost-savings. And, our affiliates and suppliers gain access to accounts they may not have been able to work on as individual entities. It&#8217;s a win-win-win situation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For more information, visit www.ibsaonline.com or call (866) 704-6262.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Headquartered in Indianapolis, International Business Solutions Alliance (IBSA) was selected by Premier Inc.\u2014one of the largest health-care alliances in the United States\u2014as a contracted supplier of document management solutions.
