CommonSpirit Health will be partnering with Premier Inc. to achieve operational excellence as it undergoes the complex integration of its newly-merged health system, which was formed through the alignment of Catholic Health Initiatives (CHI) and Dignity Health in February 2019. This new partnership will allow CommonSpirit Health to tap into Premier’s comprehensive offerings. While historically CHI has used Premier’s performance improvement technologies and services and Dignity Health has accessed Premier’s supply chain services, CommonSpirit Health will be fully converting to Premier’s group purchasing organization (GPO) and will leverage Premier technology and a focused team of experts to strengthen and accelerate the execution of a clinically integrated supply chain.

ProvideGx™ aggregates the demand of thousands of hospitals across the country, and approaches manufacturers with a guaranteed buyer-base if they agree to enter a new market or increase their production of shortage products. This creates a predictable sales channel for the manufacturer, thereby cutting down the financial risks. In exchange, hospitals get a guaranteed supply, at a guaranteed price point. And, most importantly, patients across the country can access needed medications in a timely manner. Through this work, ProvideGx partnered with Amphastar Pharmaceuticals to produce pre-filled, emergency syringes of calcium chloride, epinephrine, phytonadione, sodium bicarbonate, atropine sulfate, dextrose and lidocaine – seven front-line drugs routinely used in emergency department crash carts.

Premier Inc.’s leading enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution has again been named a top performer by KLAS Research, a healthcare IT data and insights company.

In the report, Premier’s consulting services scored best overall for satisfaction, strategic management skills and implementation among vendors with ERP software. Without exception, all executives surveyed who use Premier’s ERP solution reported they were “highly satisfied” and praised the organization’s frequent communication, responsive and knowledgeable consultants, and ability to meet deadlines. Premier’s overall satisfaction score was also higher than any other vendor rated in the report. Read more here: http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vMg0j
Contigo Health's goal is to root out what it describes as “unnecessary variations in care delivery” and use data and technology to deliver the highest quality, most cost-effective care. But the agenda will be set, in part, by employers. “Employers are firmly positioned, when coupled with innovative healthcare systems, to be the ones to fix U.S. healthcare,” said Dr. Jonathan Slotkin, Chief Medical Officer for Contigo Health, which was officially launched in early November. “We want to bring them together in intelligent ways in a network that puts care quality first.” Read more here: http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vMD4I
