Stormont Vail Health, like other healthcare facilities, struggles with product availability and finding suitable substitute products. Our supply chain goal is to be unnoticed, so that clinicians have the products they need to provide quality patient care without worrying about how the product arrived, who manufactured it or what is required to keep items on the shelf. Supply chain uses whatever resources are available to do the heavy lifting so clinicians can provide seamless care.

Surgical supply utilization and standardization is a difficult issue that many hospitals struggle to address. At MultiCare Health System we found that identifying the supply variation between providers, while a difficult task, was only the first half of the battle. We were able to develop a system that embeds our supply chain and utilization efforts in every level of the healthcare system surrounding procedure areas. Our initiative focuses on building sustainable, data-driven, actionable partnerships with deep clinical and administrative engagements.

Raw material shortages and logistics challenges complicate the task of providing what staff need to provide safe, quality-based patient care. An effective reprocessing program creates a safety net of opportunities to secure product availability, ensuring that patient care needs are met. In addition, reprocessing reduces waste, keeping thousands of pounds of medical products out of landfills. A reprocessing initiative is not only environmentally friendly but also fiscally responsible, as it significantly reduces disposal fees.

Deciding when to order labs can be challenging given the often opaque data that informs practice habits. The Choosing Wisely initiative provides recommendations on what practices should be questioned. In line with that initiative, the Society of Hospital Medicine has suggested “Don’t perform repetitive complete blood count and chemistry testing in the face of clinical and lab stability,”1 given the increased risk of patients developing anemia and the associated costs of unnecessary phlebotomy.

Imagine a life that required you to be in the hospital 10 or more times in a year, complicated by one or more chronic conditions that caused you to spend more nights in the hospital than at home. Given the challenging post-pandemic environment, the impact of this reality on both patients and hospitals is profound. Through focused intervention, Sparrow Hospital was able to decrease the need for hospitalization in patients who had previously been high utilizers, leading to increased quality of life for patients while driving down readmission rates and overall cost of care.
