If the agreement between you is that your commission will be added to the price of the medical supplies, and you will not inform him of the original price, and he is aware of this; then there is no blame upon you. However, if he asks you to search for goods and inform him of their original price, and he will give you a separate commission; then it is forbidden for you to increase the price.
