Changes abound in healthcare at a seemingly faster pace each passing day. Healthcare providers are asked to do more with less. Physicians are asked to adapt to new economics and quality scrutiny. Vendors are asked to forge stronger, more creative relationships with hospitals. All must combine efforts to ensure the best quality care for the patients at a price they are willing to pay.
Under this backdrop, value analysis plays a more critical role than ever before to improve quality of care while reducing cost of care. Using this model, health systems are able to make supply chain decisions across the enterprise for the betterment of patient care and the organization as a whole.
To help you on your value analysis journey, Premier has published the third edition of the Value Analysis Guide. It's designed to help you set a course for your value analysis program.
