About us
HealthShare Victoria is a provider of procurement and logistics services to Victoria's public health services.
Our purpose is to partner with Victorian public health services to ensure the right products and services are delivered to the right place at the right time.
We play a critical role in ensuring health services have access to goods that may be in higher demand or difficult to access, including personal protective equipment (PPE), medical consumables, ICU equipment and pharmaceuticals.
The HSV Strategic Plan 2025-2029 is now available. |
Sourcing and procurement
We work together with health service to understand their needs. We meet their needs by sourcing the goods and services they need to provide patient care and run their facilities.
We work to support better value for the state of Victoria by establishing collective agreements with suppliers through large-scale tenders.
HSV collective agreements cover medical consumables, pharmaceuticals, medical equipment and indirect products and services such a security, bedlinen and meals.
Victorian legislative compliance
Under section 131 of the Health Services Act 1988 (Vic), we administer several compliance-related functions. We also work with health services to assist them to meet their compliance and probity obligations under the Act.
Under the Act, HSV collective agreements are further extended to health or related services that have been assessed by us as eligible services.
Logistics
Our end-to-end medical consumables supply chain integrates sourcing, ordering, purchasing, warehousing, and delivery.
We help hospitals to support better patient outcomes, by maximising purchasing power through more consistent stock availability and significant discounts for bulk orders.
