PHCA Teams Up with Incite Strategic Partners to Deliver Group Purchasing Benefits

Harrisburg, PA (March 22, 2023) — The Pennsylvania Health Care Association (PHCA) is launching a new partnership today with a group purchasing organization (GPO) that will support members of the association with competitive pricing on high quality products. With abundant experience in serving long-term care communities, the GPO, Incite Strategic Partners, understands the needs and obstacles PHCA members face and more importantly, how to provide the right solutions. 

“We are thrilled to team up with Incite Strategic Partners to offer an exciting new benefit to all PHCA members that can truly help providers tackle their needs while easing the burden of cost,” said Zach Shamberg, president and CEO of the Pennsylvania Health Care Association. “This partnership also includes an online support community of information and education on cooking, nutrition and sanitation. It’s customer service that will take our members through the purchase and beyond.”

Incite works with the American Health Care Association/National Center for Assisted Living (AHCA/NCAL) and is teaming up with other state affiliate associations around the country, expanding their network and capabilities of helping providers address their needs.  

“The Incite team is thrilled to partner with PHCA and their members throughout Pennsylvania,” said Michael Dragone, co-founder and managing director for Incite Strategic Partners.”From Philadelphia to Pittsburgh, and everywhere in-between, we can’t wait to work with Zach and his talented team of industry professionals.”

“Incite takes a great deal of pride in this partnership and we are determined to achieve our mission of helping PHCA members through service, support and advocacy,” said Nick Trankito, senior director of partnership development for Incite Strategic Partners. “In a climate where cost-savings and staff efficiency are at an all-time premium, we look forward to providing expertise, technology and industry leading pricing to ensure the success of senior living operators in Pennsylvania.”
