MedChi Vendor Rating System

MedChi uses your feedback to help our vendors improve products and services, as well as compliment them on a job well done.  Since all of the comments will be confidential, we have designed a rating system to help you at a glance.

Our rating will be based on a "five star" system.  All vendors are initially given three stars when they become a MedChi vendor.  The rating system will be as follows:

êêê Baseline for all MedChi Vendors.
êêêê Complimentary information increases the number of stars.
êêêêê Maximum number of star awarded is five!
êê Negative information decreases the number of stars.
ê One star or less will be re-evaluated prior to the renewal of a vendor agreement.

MedChi always encourages its members to shop wisely and interview each vendor to make a personal decision as to which vendor best meets their individual needs.

For your added convenience, we have provided a direct link to each Vendor's website.  Just click on the logo and you will leave the MedChi website and will be able to browse additional information regarding our Vendors.

Be sure to let our Vendors know you are a MedChi member and be sure to look for additional savings with MedChi Purchasing Power.
