1 Supply Chain Management Inventory Control The Basics Amy Gagliardi, Corporate Purchasing Director ASCs 2010 Conference, May 19-22, 2010

2 The Basics of Supply Chain and Inventory Management Integration Control Strategic Focus Supportive Structure Empowerment Physician Support Consistency Skill Set Organization

3 Integration The supply chain must have appropriate integration with clinical systems, revenue cycle, IT and clinical operations. The supply chain can no longer be viewed as a back dock support service that provides products and services required by clinical staff.

4 Integration Weekly Meetings with Director of Nursing, Administrator, Business Office Manager Staff Meetings How much does this cost? Reporting Education Do your employees know that materials management can exceed 35% of your operating budget and that approximately 20% is supply cost?

5 Control Who is ordering supplies and signing contracts? All GPO relationships, inventory management, purchasing, vendor relationships and contracts, along with financial and inventory reporting should funnel thru your organizations supply chain. Materials Managers must play an integral part in an organizations annual budget process. Utilize your GPO budget impact projections and pharmacy drug price forecast. Financial Statements Read and understand your impact on monthly statements Revenue Cycle Understand the reimbursement for each case, specifically implant intensive procedures.

6 Strategic Focus Supply Chain management should focus on total impact of care, not just cost. The strategic value should affect both the patient outcome and the cost of care. Spend time in the OR Materials Managers should review all clinical benchmark reports Focus on procedure specific outcome indicators for quality, risk and safety. Learn the differences in Anesthesia, Pre Op and PACU medications and their affect on clinical outcomes.

7 Supportive Structure Position yourself to take advantage of supply chain opportunities. Maximize your GPO contracts Have 1 primary and 1 secondary GPO Have a market basket run annually Take advantage of all rebate opportunities

8 Supportive Structure Regional Contracting Service Contracts Reprocessing Office Supplies Shredding Companies Floral Delivery Foodservice Fully integrate your Information Management System

9 Empowerment The Basement or the Broom Closet The physical location of the materials manager should be positioned to enforce central purchasing, improve inventory management and to aid in the redesign of logistics and procedures across the organization.

10 Solutions for space restriction: Daily transaction meetings with Business Office Manager/Accounts Payable to review disputed invoices price changes Weekly meetings with Administrator & DON Empowerment Ideally, the materials office should be in close proximity to the Business Office Manger or Accounts Payable

11 Physician Support You must pick your champion Administration and DON are critical to this process Provide proper and accurate data and metrics Continually increase awareness of supply issues and strategic importance Staff meetings Board meeting

12 Consistency Accurate Reporting of supply costs, variations and price increase/decrease must be reviewed monthly Case costing reports, both supply usage and revenue/cost reports must be run quarterly Semi annual inventory value reports should be reviewed Materials Managers must engage with their peers as a unified industry in order to have a strong voice when engaging manufacturers. ASC Foundation benchmarking Your Management Groups benchmarking Benchmark within your facility

13 THE NEW SKILL SET With the ever changing landscape of healthcare and challenges with reimbursement, materials managers can no longer focus solely on processing requisitions, placing orders and stocking shelves. In order to move towards a focused strategic outcome, materials managers need a new skill set.

17 Project Management Experience Leverage cross functional expertise from physicians, clinical staff, finance and administration to reduce cost while improving patient care. Develop a case study on different methods and products (implants and supplies) for Hernia Repairs and their affect on financial and patient care.

18 Facilitation Skills The materials manager must posses facilitation skills to ensure that different points of view are considered when developing strategies. The materials manager must posses the professional skills to communicate effectively across the organization.

19 The New Skillset Microsoft Excel Amerinet Inquisit ASC Association GPO publications Professional Society (CPM, HCPM)

20 Different Theories of Supply Chain Just In Time Inventory The process of monitoring inventory in such a manner as to minimize cost associated with inventory control and maintenance. A just in time inventory strategy can significantly cut the operational expenses of a business in regards to the amount of inventory that must be stored at any one time and the amount of taxes that must be paid on larger inventories.

21 Just In Time Inventory You MUST have a solid understanding of your inventory needs and the amount of time in which shipping and delivery can be consistently met. This process can only be managed if a current and accurate data base is maintained. You must negotiate a minimum order charge with your distributor/manufacturer.

22 Consignment Inventory Management Solution Beyond Implants distribution is now offering supplies on consignment. Reduces operational cost. Start with custom packs You must be able to accurately account for usage. BOM/AP involvement

23 Standard Supply Chain This can be very successful for organization of inventory, maximization of GPO contracts, and accurate database maintenance. The enhancement of technology in IS systems, EDI order capability and barcode technology has greatly increased the efficiency of supply chain in ASC s.
