– Hospital supply chains are under increasing pressure to reduce costs without disrupting care. Yet many organizations still rely on limited visibility, manual processes, and retrospective reporting—making it difficult to control spend or prevent waste.
Leading hospitals are changing this by turning real-time supply chain data into measurable financial results.
Where the Savings Come From
By combining analytics, UDI, and RFID/UHF, hospitals are able to:
Identify overstocking and unused inventory
Eliminate expired and lost items
Improve charge capture and compliance
Reduce manual documentation for clinicians
These data-driven strategies are delivering 30–40% reductions in supply costs, especially across high-cost procedural areas like the OR, Cath Lab, EP, and IR.
From Compliance to Competitive Advantage
UDI is often seen as a regulatory requirement—but when captured automatically, it becomes a powerful source of insight. Paired with RFID, hospitals gain real-time visibility into what they have, where it is, and how it’s used—without adding steps to clinical workflows.
Why This Matters Now
Supply chain is no longer just an operational function—it’s a strategic lever for financial sustainability and patient safety. Hospitals that invest in real-time visibility are better positioned to reduce waste, improve efficiency, and support clinicians at the point of care.
