What makes a health system truly stand out on the global stage?
What makes a health system truly stand out on the global stage? It’s not just about groundbreaking clinical innovation and cutting-edge research, although these are crucial.
World-class health systems excel in building robust infrastructures and seamless business operations too. A key piece of the puzzle? Indirect, or non-clinical procurement, a strategic function that underpins their unwavering commitment to excellence.
In this session we will introduce the Non-clinical Procurement Maturity Model – your health system’s key to stepping into a world of unparalleled operational efficiency, quality, and outcomes. Developed leveraging decades of industry experience, this tool allows healthcare leadership to assess their current non-clinical procurement capabilities and guide them towards incremental improvements that will enhance the maturity of the function, and ultimately, the results they deliver.
Join us for an enlightening discussion with Mark Van Sumeren, a seasoned industry advisor with over 40 years of experience in healthcare strategy, operations, and supply chain, and John Dockins, Executive Director of Sourcing & Vendor Management, from the renowned Cleveland Clinic.
Together, they’ll dive into a conversation that may reshape how you view the procurement function of healthcare systems – from mere cost-cutters to true value creators.
