Bergen Brunswig Drug Company (BBDC), a subsidiary of Bergen Brunswig Corporation today announced a new five-year Preferred Authorized Distribution Agreement with InSource Health(TM) services -- one of the leading Group Purchasing Organizations (GPOs) in the country.
Under terms of the new agreement, which will commence January 22, 2001, BBDC will be one of InSource's Preferred Authorized Distribution Agents to provide pharmaceuticals to both their acute and alternate care facilities.

Ed Gravell, President of InSource Health Services added, "This new distribution agreement demonstrates Bergen's commitment to InSource's mission of providing exceptional value to our membership while enhancing the relationship between Bergen and InSource. We are confident our members will take advantage of this new agreement that offers the quality service and innovative programs available from Bergen."
Over 10,000 facilities in 50 states make up InSource's membership, including acute care facilities and non-acute site providers (surgery centers, long-term care facilities, retirement centers, nursing homes, home health agencies, closed pharmacies, HMOs, dialysis units, and multi-disciplinary clinics).
