Transforming the Healthcare Supply Chain


In an age where healthcare costs can rise to unprecedented levels, Supply Chain Managers have a unique role to connect the dots between patient needs, physician objectives and overall supply issues. Without reliable supply chain data and direct supplier relationships, health systems often find themselves out of sync. Compounded by manual processes and limited spend visibility, it can be difficult to create more efficient operations.

Healthcare leaders such as the Cleveland Clinic and Baylor, Scott & White have leveraged Ivalua to establish leading supply chain organizations. With the right technology and transformation strategy, healthcare organizations have an opportunity to reduce total supply expense by 20% or more.
