AHRMM and ISM—Shaping the Health Care Field through the Hospital Report on Business
Description:
The Institute for Supply Management(ISM) is working in collaboration with the Association for Health Care Resource & Materials Management (AHRMM) and the Strategic Marketplace Initiative (SMI) to establish a new economic index for the health care supply chain. This index will help identify trends and assist supply chain leaders in making important business decisions.
This webinar gives a brief overview of the ISM Report On Business, one of the most reliable near-term economic barometers available, and explains why government agencies, economists, and business leaders follow it closely. Learn about the development of the hospital specific report (the Hospital Report On Business), why it is important, and how you can be involved.
How this session relates to the Cost, Quality, and Outcomes (CQO) Movement: The ISM Hospital Report on Business helps identify health care trends, assisting supply chain leaders in making important business decisions that positively affect the overall cost, quality, and outcomes of patient care in today’s value-based environment.
