| Sponsor Members have additional opportunities to support HAC educational programming and the community work of the HAC charity, Health Quality Forum. |
| |
| To remain an independent voice for purchasers, HAC Regular Membership is available to healthcare providers (hospitals, for example) and to medical suppliers (pharmaceutical and device companies) as employers, but only if their participation is by staff that is responsible for the purchase of healthcare benefits for employees and retirees, typically Human Resources or Finance. |
