Overview

The healthcare industry is complicated! Banner Health employees are challenged by their CEO to "possess a passion for complexity and a high tolerance for ambiguity". The healthcare industry is currently being asked to drastically reduce costs while improving patient outcomes simultaneously.

Supply Chain Management plays a vital role in the delivery of healthcare ensuring that clinicians have the supplies and equipment needed to produce outstanding patient care outcomes; extraordinary fill rates are required as the cost of running out of a supply in a hospital doesn't cost a sale or delay a production line as it might in another industry, it could result in a negative patient outcome and hurt the individuals we are trying to help. Additionally, supply expense accounts for approximately 18-20% of total hospital operating expenses which represents a fantastic opportunity to participate in significantly reducing the overall cost of care.

Please join us for an overview of how the supply chain functions in the hospital industry........where complexity and ambiguity abound!
