Using a GPO to cut costs—without sacrificing quality care.

Purchasing is an essential part of managing any patient-facing practice. Many practice managers and providers handle their purchases as ‘one off’ buys, simply creating accounts and placing orders as needed. They’re not benefitting from a more formal agreement or any kind of volume-based discount.

Leveraging group purchasing for savings in categories like medical and surgical supplies, office products and furniture, shipping, and medical waste disposal vastly lowers costs while improving service levels.

Jeff Cohen, Vice President of Emerging Markets at Una, recently joined Art of Procurement to discuss:

• The common characteristics of businesses that don’t yet have formal, centralized purchasing in place
• The benefits of working with an experienced group purchasing organization (GPO) to increase savings, better manage spend, and improve provider service levels
• Why being more purposeful about spending can result in multiple forms of savings, value and business impact - all while improving the patient experience

If you work for an independent medical practice, home health agency, or medical spa and are responsible for purchasing goods and services, this webinar is for you!
