There was an interesting article a while back about some of the shady practices of Group Purchasing Organisations (who negotiate with pharma/equipment suppliers for cheaper rates) I can't seem to find the original article, but http://www.medicaldevices.org/issues/GPO-Reform http://www.medicaldevices.org/issues/GPO-Reform has some interesting papers linked from there.
