“Drug shortages continue to impact health care and its delivery,” said Daniel Carbery, president and CEO of Amring. “As a member of Alliance, we will work together to develop collaborative mitigation strategies to address issues contributing to these shortages.”

Alliance launched in late 2021 to bring together industry stakeholders, including providers, group purchasing organizations, manufacturers, distributors, and other industry thought leaders and champions. Efforts will focus on improving access to medications through greater transparency across market participants, leading to improved quality manufacturing of medications and production of additional supply, the organization said.
