New Resources to Help Source PPE

New Resources to Help Source PPE

In the effort to provide you with information to help you continue to source PPE, we are sharing the emergency vendor list from the Virginia Department of General Services (DGS) as well as instructions on how healthcare customers, which now include nursing homes and assisted living facilities, with a free Amazon Business account can purchase on Amazon through “COVID-19 Supplies.”

Please note, DMAS and DGS do not endorse nor suggest any vendor appearing on the DGS emergency vendor list. Providers are required to conduct their own due diligence prior to procuring from any vendor listed.

COVID-19 Supplies is a central location on Amazon to access inventory of critical medical supplies as they become available.

AHCA/NCAL has also developed a list of PPE suppliers that have recently served long term care providers. The list is not an endorsement or seal of approval of any particular PPE supplier, but can be used as a resource when PPE is not available through their ordinary supply chains. Knowing whether a PPE supplier is reliable is challenging these days with all the pop-up PPE suppliers and PPE scams.
