Overview

American Hospital Supply Corporation was a preeminent American manufacturer and distributor of medical products and laboratory supplies. Established in 1922 by Foster G. McGaw, the company became a cornerstone of the U.S. healthcare infrastructure, known for its extensive catalog and innovative distribution systems. In 1985, the company was acquired by Baxter Travenol (now Baxter International) in a multi-billion dollar deal that reshaped the medical supply industry. Its legacy persists through the various divisions that eventually formed parts of Baxter and Cardinal Health, particularly in the realm of hospital supply chain management and surgical products.
