HIDA, the Health Industry Distributors Association, is a trade association representing distributors that serve healthcare providers. Based in Alexandria, Virginia, the organization leverages more than a century of experience to provide resources and relationships designed to help member companies operate profitably in the complex and rapidly changing landscape of healthcare distribution. It functions within the medical equipment distribution ecosystem, supporting members as they navigate market shifts and supply chain dynamics. Recent leadership updates reflect ongoing governance and industry focus: in June 2026, KC Meleski, president and CEO of CME Corp., was appointed chair of HIDA's Board of Directors. The association also hosts events like the MedSupplyChain Conference, which brings together healthcare and distribution leaders to discuss how distributors can meet provider needs and keep care moving. HIDA maintains several initiatives, including a Supplier Diversity Summit and an online Learning Center to broaden education and resources for members.
