I'm making my supply list today for next year and even though I have a very generous budget I find that the supplies are almost double on a few medical supply websites.

Who do you order from and what's your budget?

Mine are ordered from school health mostly, a few from Moore medical and a few from Henry Schein. Find out who has your state contract to get the best prices.

I order mostly from MacGill. I also search amazon for some deals, and buy stuff like laundry soup and lotion from our local dollar store.

MacGill. I have found them to be the best price. I have to go to a couple different places for some things. Like dental mirrors.

We have a contract with school health and a local compounding pharmacy for OTC meds. I really just buy everything off amazon and get reimbursed though. It's significantly cheaper and I don't mind putting the money forward, but I would never blame anyone who didn't want to.

I use Moore for basic supplies (gauze, syringes, bandages, etc). But for more expensive supplies I shop around because Moore's prices are very high.

We are a private school so I can bargain shop locally for some of my supplies.

I order a large portion of my clinic items from MacGill. The rest I get locally from Sam's Club and Walmart.

I order from MacGill, and buy what I can't get from them from the grocery store or Wal-Mart. I get $600 per year to spend on 800 students. Therefore, I end up spending my own money on snacks, hand soap, air fresheners, etc.
