Our clinically driven sourcing process underpins our mission to strengthen provider performance and clinical excellence to ultimately improve healthcare in the communities we serve, focussing on driving value (Quality, safety, service and price). Each month, representatives from our members participate in advisory board meetings and govern all contract decisions. The Clinical advisory board, representative of doctors, nurses, technicians, pharmacists and other clinical end-users, drive the development of clinical specifications and determine ‘like’ products which are clinically acceptable. The Procurement partnership board, representative of procurement and supply chain experts works with HealthTrust Europe to set the commercial requirements and provides commitment.
