Background/Challenge

An independent hospital in the Midwest wanted to improve their supply chain operations and maximize savings so they could improve their overall financial performance while remaining independent. Before Elevate, they were part of a rural affiliate network as part of a larger Integrated Delivery Network (IDN) but as a smaller hospital, they didn’t always get the day-to-day support, decision-making ability, or savings impact they desired, leading to a search for a partner that would be more of a resource and more involved in helping them reach their goals.

Solution

As a member of a 52-billion-dollar group purchasing organization, Elevate enabled the hospital to achieve significant cost savings across their total organizational spend. Elevate’s dedication to supporting independent, community-based hospitals and health systems allowed them to act as an extension of the hospital’s supply chain team, ensuring operational, clinical, and financial goals were met. This opportunity to deliver exceptional care at a reduced cost ensured the hospital could continue as an independent hospital.

Elevate’s team of operators supports more than 160 clients across 39 states bringing a level of expertise that enables clients to exceed their goals.
