Ms. Finlayson published the following tip in Medline‘s Outpatient Outcomes magazine:
“Review contracts and current orders. Is everything on the order on contract? If not, could you switch to something that is on contract or talk to your rep about getting the supply you need on a contract?
“When looking at your entire strategy, you will notice communication and collaboration will be important. Communicate with your clinical staff and with your representative. The inefficiencies will present themselves when the entire team is working together, and your supplier might have fresh ideas to reduce costs because they may have resources to help track and share information, and offer an outside perspective of your ordering process.”
