SourceOne signs with Catholic Healthcare Partners

SourceOne Healthcare Technologies has signed a five-year sole-source agreement with not-for-profit Catholic Healthcare Partners (CHP) health systems.

 SourceOne estimates that the new contract will generate some $10 million in annual sales, as the company becomes the sole provider of radiology-related supplies, accessories, and processor service to CHP's 30-hospital network

 The contract went into effect this week and runs through Aug. 31, 2008.

 CHP is the largest health system in Ohio and is co-sponsored by the Sisters of Mercy, Regional Communities of Cincinnati, Ohio and Dallas, Pa.; the Sisters of the Humility of Mary; the Franciscan Sisters of the Poor; and Covenant Health Systems.
