NHS Purchasing and Supply Agency
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The NHS Purchasing and Supply Agency is an executive body of the United Kingdom Department of Health.
The purchasing arm of the English NHS, it has main offices in Chester and Reading. The Agency is self funding in that it does not charge either suppliers or customers.
None of the Agency's contracts are mandatory, although until mid 2006 there was an increasing tendency to insist on their use where applicable, especially to NHS trusts who were in sufficient financial distress to have turn around teams installed by the DOH.
