ASC supply chain tip of the day: Focus on patients' needs

Neil Olderman, partner at law firm Drinker Biddle & Reath and president of consulting firm Innovative Health Strategies, said in the next 10 years ASCs can expect to see device maker role changes in operating suites, devicemakers treating ASCs as clients, and supply chains shift focus to being accountable for patient outcomes.

A supply chain tip he shared with Becker's ASC Review:

"The need to manage the patient's successful outcome will force ASCs to drive the need for greater collaboration among providers and obtain better data and deeper insights into what works for patients best,” Mr. Olderman said. “Again, as in other instances within healthcare, we expect to see a cottage industry emerge around improving outcomes and the patient experience in the outpatient surgery setting."
