ASU News

An international study aimed at understanding hospital “sourcing levers” sheds light on the relationship between purchasing decisions and patient care outcomes. Going beyond strategy, a recent article from ASU News reviews the study and highlights how supply chain decisions directly affect patient outcomes. With a long-term focus on quality of care (not just cost reduction), healthcare supply chain leaders can create a balance between financial responsibility and value creation for patients.

This expansive approach to strategic purchasing and procurement goes beyond logistics to incorporate a healthcare facility’s broader goals around patient care and sustainability.
