Book excerpt: Ledlow BCC Supplies currently account for up to 45% of a healthcare organization’s annual operating expense. The supply chain ensures that the technology of care is available to the health care professional at the right time, at the right place and in sufficient quantity and quality for superior health outcomes for patients within the health system. As such, a clear understanding of the workings of the healthcare supply chain is vital to successful healthcare management today. Health Care Supply Chain Management examines supply chain management within the unique context of healthcare services delivery. The authors, with over 60 years combined experience in healthcare administration, supply chain, and academia, examine the critical topics of sourcing, logistics, security and compliance, purchasing, storage and inventory management, distribution, vendor management, as well as future challenges in health care. Students of health administration, public administration, public health, nursing and other allied health professions will learn the most current and effective methods for the management of the supply chain that will contribute to success in the delivery and financing of healthcare services. Key Features: • Offers an overview of the elements of the healthcare supply chain • Examines both the operational and the strategic aspects of supply chain management • Includes a discussion of the integration of the supply chain with the clinical delivery of care • Provides a sound basis of knowledge for students so that healthcare supply chain improvements can be achieved for the mutual benefit of the healthcare industry

Download or read book Healthcare Facility Acquisition Outcomes written by Russell Manning and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Healthcare facilities are a unique market sector in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) Industry. These facilities are complex buildings, with planning, design, and construction potentially spanning five or more years. They reflect both changes in population demographics, such as population shifts or human lifecycle, and they constantly are reacting to changes in technology, such as changes in medical practice or simply newer medical equipment.Acquisition strategy, which defines the overall methods used by a facility owner or developer to plan, program, design, build/construct, and operate the facility, is also most commonly referred to in academia as the delivery system. This dissertation looks at the relationship of delivery methods, procurement methods and contracting methods on healthcare related projects to project cost and schedule performance outcomes.This was achieved through the introduction of a continuous variable, "Degree of Integration" (DOI), to replace historical categorical analysis of delivery methods. This DOI uses attributes representative of a given delivery method's scale of integration and probable collaboration. The results show a statistically significant relationship between the DOI and reduced cost growth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Spending millions of dollars to renovate, reconfigure, expand, or replace a facility can be intimidating without the right direction. Healthcare Facility Planning: Thinking Strategically is a practical guide that will help you move confidently from planning to implementation. This book's focus is on predesign planning-- a stage in the healthcare facility planning, design, and construction process. Healthcare executives have the greatest opportunity to express a vision for their organization’s future during predesign planning, and decisions made during this stage have the greatest impact on long term operational costs and future flexibility. Careful predesign planning allows an organization to rethink its current patient care delivery model, operational systems and processes, and use of technology to ensure that a facility substantially benefits patients, caregivers, and payers. This new edition addresses current issues—such as new financial incentives, fluctuating utilization and demand, constant pressure for technology adoption and deployment, rising turf wars among specialists, intense focus on patient safety, and aging physical plants--that affect the way facilities are used, planned, financed, and built.”--Back cover.
