On this week's episode of Power Supply Articles On-the-Go, Bob Yokl discusses why if your value analysis program isn't a well-oiled machine, it will cost your hospital, system, or IDN time, money, and resources: "With very few exceptions, every hospital, system, and IDN has an active value analysis program to evaluate new purchase requests, review and approve new and renewal group purchasing contracts, and trouble shoot and problem solve product, service, and technology issues.

On this week's episode of Power Supply Articles On-the-Go, Bob Yokl discusses the role of competition in driving down costs: "In addition to clinical departments changing their costly supply expense practices once they see their department's supply utilization reports, you can jump-start this process by having your clinical department, especially nursing floors, compete to have the lowest expense per patient day.
