Supply Chain Resource Council Reports
The Supply Chain Resource Council (SCRC) is comprised of over 90 supply chain and health care leaders from across the health care field.
These leaders meet with the goal of understanding the extent and impact supply shortages and disruptions are having within the hospital and patient care settings, as well as a capturing and documenting solutions to these challenges.
Information collected during these calls is drafted into a report and shared with AHA, AHRMM and Professional Management Group (PMG) senior leaders, the White House Response Team, various Federal Agencies and the broader health care field.
