Efforts to optimize costs are a significant goal for medical facilities, regardless of whether they are commercial or public in nature.

A focused approach to cost management in the healthcare sector can contribute to increased operational efficiency, improved patient care standards, and enhanced competitiveness of the facility.

Owners and managers of medical facilities typically focus on controlling costs, both in terms of employee hiring and the procurement of medical products or services. Dedicated e-commerce platforms can serve as effective innovative tools to support this process. Customers place orders themselves, and price negotiations are conducted centrally through the platform for medical facilities, saving costs, time, and staff energy.

Benefits of the procurement platform:

1. Time savings and cost reduction.

The procurement platform allows for the automation of many purchasing processes, resulting in time savings for medical staff and reduced operational costs. The ability to easily compare prices and offers from suppliers facilitates easy purchasing at preferential prices. Additionally, the platform provides a history of medical product purchases, eliminating the need to verify the market with each order.

2. Supplier management and inventory monitoring.

Through the procurement platform, medical facilities can manage deliveries and track the status of their orders in real-time. This is particularly important as it helps avoid situations where essential medical supplies are lacking at critical times for the facility’s operations.

3. Increased order transparency.

The procurement platform gathers all order information in one place. Medical facilities can easily track their expenses, order history, and other relevant data, contributing to greater transparency and budget control on a monthly/yearly scale.

4. Financial transparency.

The procurement platform enables strict monitoring of expenses, aiding in budget planning and avoiding excessive costs. Additionally, the platform makes it easy to identify differences in orders (increases) between successive turnover periods.

5. Safety and quality.

Safety and quality are of paramount importance in the medical industry. The procurement platform allows for tracking and verification of the quality of delivered medical products. As a result, medical facilities can be assured that they receive products meeting the highest standards. Orders are placed only with verified manufacturers and suppliers, eliminating the risk of receiving products that do not meet the country’s requirements for medical devices.
