Supply Chain Tip of the Week: Gain clinician buy-in through data and analytics

To impact costs around product usage, the supply chain needs support from clinicians.

When it comes to product standardization and other supply chain initiatives in procedural areas, a cost savings story without data-driven rationale may not be enough to create alignment. That’s why it’s important for your facility to consider ways to engage clinicians. One intriguing strategy is to implement data-driven collaboration. 

For example, RFID and other leading technologies are being used to collect product usage data by clinician, procedure, patient and outcome. Equally as important, cloud-based analytics and dashboards can help clinicians understand (and buy into) the reality that product standardization impacts efficiency, thus driving down the total cost of delivery without compromising care.1

This kind of data-driven collaboration is proving that the greatest efficiencies can only be gained when supply chain experts and clinicians work together strategically.
