Purchase Order 75H71020P00456

This is a firm fixed price purchase order awarded by the Indian Health Service (IHS), a civilian agency within the Department of Health and Human Services, to the prime contractor Mckesson Corporation, doing business as Mckesson Drug Company. The contract, valued at $90,277.18, is for the delivery of pharmaceutical products to the Shiprock, New Mexico service area. Mckesson is a large healthcare services and information technology company that provides pharmaceuticals, medical supplies, and related distribution services to federal government customers. The award was not set aside for any socioeconomic program. Mckesson has a broader $675 million National Supply Service Center prime vendor blanket purchase agreement with IHS to furnish pharmaceutical supplies, as well as a separate $710 million single-award blanket purchase agreement to provide additional pharmaceutical products to the agency. These contract vehicles allow IHS to efficiently obtain essential medical supplies for the Native American populations it serves.
