By Following a Proven Step by Step Guided Application Approach, You Will Ensure Short and Long-Term Savings Success Every Time
In a perfect world, every hospital and health system supply/value chain professional would lay out their own product targets for savings and then go after them with the systems that they have in place. Many times, these committees or teams are attacking these products or product categories for the first time. Their main goal is to save as much as they can save or at minimum achieve the savings that is laid out by the new contract or reason for the study. There is no doubt that they can save money by focusing on a specific product area but more than likely they are going to unknowingly come up short on their savings and leave money on the table. Why? Because they selected one or two strategies to reduce costs which netted them enough savings to deem their study complete and move on to the next product category study. But there could be many more small strategies that can yield big savings that they are unaware of.
If You Don’t Know What You Don’t Know Then You Miss Out on Savings

In a perfect world, with any contracted product you would like to make a big splash in savings with a broad stroke strategy such as reprocessing. But one strategy is not going to make as big of a savings dent as you think. I have seen reprocessing go the other way when the health system thought they were saving $300k+ a year based on their buy backs from their reprocessing company, when in fact they were losing $50K a year instead.
How Can You Employ Reprocessing that is Set to Save $300K per Year but You End Up Losing $50K Instead?
First off, the reprocessing company can only report on one side of the equation and that is the discounted pulse Oxisensors that you buy back from them. They cannot factor in how much you buy in disposable or reusable sensors. That reporting is only showing half the picture. What if the other half of the picture is much higher spend than you think? You need to factor the true NET result into the equation and that is the total spend on reprocessed, reusable, and disposable sensors. Simple!
