Abstract:

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate how buyers and the vendors pursue alignment in collaborative purchasing (CP) of complex medical technologies. Design/methodology/approach – Through a literature review in CP, the paper identify factors for shareholder alignment (i.e. aligning the needs of the buyers within the purchasing group) and customer alignment (i.e. aligning buyers’ needs with the vendors offering strategies) and investigate how they manifest in the case of CP of complex technology in the Danish National Healthcare System. Findings – Shareholder alignment requires ap

Abstract:

Aim: Cooperative purchasing is considered a promising area for lowering the cost in the health care sector, although recent initiatives show mixed results. The purpose of this study is to find a thorough explanation for the performance of cooperative purchasing in healthcare by investigating the role of trust, commitment, organizational factors (i.e. group formality, and IT system effectiveness) and interpersonal skills (i.e. teamwork skills, and communication).Design/research method: A conceptual model for the performance of cooperative purchasing was developed.

Abstract:

BackgroundIn an attempt to achieve universal health coverage, Nigeria introduced a number of health insurance schemes. One of them, the Formal Sector Social Health Insurance Programme (FSSHIP), was launched in 2005 to provide health cover to federal government and formal private sector employees. It operates with two levels of purchasers, the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) and health maintenance organisations (HMOs). This study critically assesses purchasing arrangements between NHIS, HMOs and healthcare providers and determines how the arrangements function from a strategic purchasin

Abstract:

Healthcare providers are under intense cost and quality pressures. Extant literature indicates that healthcare's unique operational context necessitates collaboration, but suffers from factors that inhibit coordination. At the same time, general views on value creation are evolving toward a servicedominant logic (SDL) view, which focuses more intently on collaborations aimed at the sharing of specialized competencies among actors functioning in a network. This study while highlighting the challenges faced in healthcare supply chain provides a contemporary view of value creation based on compe

Abstract:

The U.S. healthcare system continually confronts the challenge of controlling costs, improving quality and patient safety, and increasing or maintaining patient access to care. Payors and purchasers of healthcare (both public and private) strive to develop mechanisms to guarantee that they are purchasing the highest-value care – seeking to ensure that amounts paid take into account and provide incentives encouraging the delivery of high-quality, cost-efficient care. Through “value-based purchasing” (“VBP”) strategies, healthcare payors and purchasers are transforming from passive payors of cla

Abstract:

Hospitals are facing severe increases in the cost of clinical supplies, and a common strategy is to drive economies of scale achieved by hospital consolidation. The supply strategy of “volume leveraging” involves sourcing through contracts with Group Purchasing Organizations (GPOs) for commercial distributors and manufacturers of medical products. This study seeks to document the empirical benefits associated with volume leveraging, through analysis of purchasing data from three large hospitals.

Background: In the context of serious concerns over the affordability of healthcare, various authors and international policy bodies advise that strategic purchasing is a key means of improving health system performance. Such advice is typically informed by theories from the economics of organization (EOO).

Expensive medical devices, especially in the areas of orthopedics, and cardiology, have a significant impact on hospital costs and the delivery of high-quality services.

There is a gap between the purchasing strategy and the adoption of tactical activities for these complex medical supplies.
