dear distinguished Colleague,
as we progress into the future of a new value-based health care world, supply chain must follow suit and leave behind aging models. Breaking down silos through integration, advancing our technological capabilities, restructur-ing, and redefining our relationships with key players in the field are a must to succeed in tomorrow’s business landscape.
i invite you to join me, January 26-27 in new orleans for the 9th Annual health Care supply Chain summit. Industry leaders from health care supply chain, suppliers, gpos, and distributer organizations will convene to discuss innovations and challenges facing the health care supply chain industry today.
in-depth sessions, case studies, panels, and round table discussions facilitate the sharing of best practices in a collaborative and engaging man-ner with peers. Key topics focus on strategies to:
• integrate supply chain to improve value
• utilize big data and automation to improve efficiency and outcomes
• reduce costs by applying alternate purchasing and distribution strategies
• leverage relationship management to reduce costs and improve quality
Join us as we identify the next steps for supply chain in this new health care market. i hope to see you in new orleans this January.
Sincerely,
