The
Excel GSO/MedAssets HSCA Healthcare Information
Services (HIS) Program provides savings solutions
to member healthcare organizations. In an
era of shrinking revenues and rising medical
supply costs, every procurement dollar matters.
HIS offers superior services to materials
managers and purchasing departments contending
with today's healthcare issues. Synergies
programs are setting the industry standard
through customized data management tools and
ultimately aiding an organization in the reduction
of supply and procurement costs. |

In
the healthcare industry, purchasing data resides
in various locations and diverse formats.
Despite this challenge, HIS integrates purchasing
data into meaningful management information
to assist in accessing correct contract pricing.
It is common for a Synergies program to identify
more than $100,000 in annual savings for a
mid-sized hospital, and as much as $1 million
for a healthcare system. |
|
| Strategic
Information and Implementation |
|
|
Strategic
Information (SI) is a Synergies tool providing
purchasing volume and trending analysis based
on a healthcare organization's purchasing
data. The analysis generates feedback through
monthly reports. After electronic collection,
consolidation, and analysis of materials management
data, the information is reviewed for savings
opportunities. HIS identifies cost reduction
opportunities and assists organizations in
maintaining accurate, clean, and functioning
databases. |
|
| Strategic
Information for Integrated Delivery Networks |
|
|
|
Strategic
Information (SI) provides incremental opportunities
for Integrated Delivery Networks (IDNs) by
aggregating purchasing data at the healthcare
system and corporate level. Even if hospitals
use various materials management systems within
the healthcare system, Synergies tools streamline
the analysis and produce standardized and
customized reports. SI is more than just reporting;
it is a consultative service combining our
sophisticated web-based tools, as well as
clinical and procurement expertise to provide
optimal savings opportunities for our subscribers. |
|
| Master
Item Files |
|
|
|
Master
Item Files (MIFs) become corrupted, difficult
to manage, and data becomes inconsistent over
time. A consolidated and standardized MIF
is essential for all facilities, especially
IDNs. Synergies programs assist in standardizing
and cleansing MIF data for individual healthcare
organizations or IDNs. |

Consolidated
Contract Catalog & Formulary (3CF) is
a medical/surgical electronic catalog created
in 1991 by Excel GSO/MedAssets HSCA to provide
members access to over 500 contract cover
sheets and over 500,000 line items. During
the past decade, the catalog has been enhanced
and remains the most current, customer centric,
and technologically advanced tool available
to the healthcare industry. CDQuick facilitates
cost reduction, centralization of the ordering
function and becomes a single source of contract
information for members to utilize. The MedAssets
e-catalog is extremely fast, stable, mature,
scalable, and reliable. E-catalogs are customized
