About Us

We’re a visionary company with an entrepreneurial spirit. We’re the people behind many healthcare industry firsts, including formulary-based procurement, virtual item masters, and automatic functional equivalence identification.

As the creator of Meperia Strategic Sourcing, we’ve enabled healthcare systems to put controls and real-time visibility around med-surg spend at the point of requisitioning and throughout the purchasing process to save millions on annual supply spend and eliminate back-end rework. It’s the first true “savings enforcement” solution.

We’ve also developed ancillary solutions like The Library, a content management tool that uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to generate a single source of accurate, universal product information, syncing internal sources like the MMIS and the Item Master and Charge Master with outside data sources from your GPO, distributor, and manufacturers.

And we’re not done yet. We continue to assess the content management and data issues facing today’s health systems, to discover and develop new solutions to make their lives easier.

Mission & Vision

Mission

Content + Technology = Results

It’s time for new ideas. A fresh, turn-the-world-on-its-head approach to old healthcare supply chain problems.

Our goal is to create solutions that are so intuitive and smart, they do the work for users. To improve the accuracy of content, eliminate back-end office rework and present opportunities to supply chain and clinical staff alike. Solutions that make a user’s daily life easier and provide a positive impact to a provider’s bottom line.

Vision

No Boundaries

Meperia’s looking to harness emerging technology from within healthcare and from other industries to create radical change within the healthcare supply chain. We envision a new horizon, where data knows no bounds and is accessible, accurate and intuitive in real-time, empowering every user to make the right decision, every time.

Our Philosophy

We Ask WHY

Why Isn’t It Easy To Get The Answers You Need?

We discovered several core “truths” of successful supply chain management—creating the belief system on which our business is built:

It’s not a technology problem, it’s a data management problem.

Data is unstructured and undisciplined because so are we. So, if we accept that data is diverse, but organize it so it’s consistent, accurate and accessible, you’ll gain big efficiencies and savings.

Given the right information up front, people will make the right decision.

Armed with accurate, relevant, timely information, employees will most often make the best choice – improving the organization as a whole.

A few changes can make a big difference.

Make it easy for users to find and compare products. And help organizations easily control actions and events that impact profitability, such as rogue purchasing.

Why Choose Us?

Industry Thought Leaders

Since 1990, we’ve been creating some of healthcare’s most innovative answers to complex content and supply chain issues. Normalizing data from disparate sources—both outside, like GPOs, distributors and manufacturers; and inside, like materials systems, clinical systems and synching the item and charge master. Giving visibility and control over non-file spend. Harnessing AI to drive sound decision-making by every buyer in every hospital and across every IDN we serve.

This entrepreneurial mindset and spirit has led Meperia to look at the healthcare supply chain a whole new way, and make data clean and easy to access, decisions more sound up front, and eliminating the back work needed to correct uninformed decisions and rogue “off-line” purchasing.
