About Us
Cha-Choo-Sen Medical, LLC is a Tribally owned Group Purchasing Organization (GPO) operating under the sovereign governance of the Lummi Nation. As a subsidiary of the Lummi Development Holding Company, our mission is to improve access to affordable, high-quality pharmaceuticals and medical supplies for Indigenous communities.
We believe healthcare sovereignty is central to Tribal self-determination. Through shared purchasing power, we strengthen access to medicine, protect community health, and reinvest Indigenous economies.
We are building a culturally responsive and sustainable procurement network rooted in Tribal values, economic empowerment, and health equity. Our operations are designed to serve Tribal Health Clinics and Centers across Indian Country.
Our Vision
We operate under Tribal leadership, ensuring cultural alignment and community accountability. Our board and management consists entirely of enrolled Tribal members who have worked on behalf of Tribes for decades.
We focus on securing competitive pricing and reliable access to essential medications and supplies.
Our phased expansion plan begins with Tribal clinics, grows through intertribal partnerships, and extends to broader healthcare systems.
Every aspect of our procurement model is designed to reflect and respect Indigenous values and community needs.
Our Operational Model
We adhere to federal reporting standards and Tribal governance protocols, ensuring transparency, compliance, and reinvestment into community health initiatives.
