Get Involved in Strengthening Healthcare Resiliency
HIRC is a neutral, member-led collaborative that turns shared industry expectations into sourcing-ready standards, tools, and signals that protect continuity of patient care.
Organizations engage with HIRC by adopting standards — and by joining as members to help govern and advance them.
Why Participation Matters
Healthcare resiliency breaks down when expectations are fragmented, diligence is duplicative, and risk signals are inconsistent. HIRC addresses this by aligning the industry around shared standards that can actually be used in procurement and operations.
Two Ways to Get Involved
Membership ensures HIRC standards remain industry-led and continuously improved.
Adopt HIRC Standards
Adoption drives consistency and legitimacy across the healthcare supply chain.
