"How to Gain Physician Buy-In and Foster Communication Between Clinical and Supply-Chain Departments"

Supply Savings InsiderTM Tele-Seminar Series

Thursday, November 17, 2005 at 12:00 EST (90 Minutes)

The #1 Question asked by healthcare supply-chain professionals is:  How do we get our Physicians to change over to a preferred contract vendor or product that will save our hospital thousands of dollars?  My answer is always the same, There is no one "GO TO" tactic that will assist you in your physician/clinician dealings, but there is a system (6-Step Clinical Value Analysis Process) that I will teach you that will give you and your organization the win-win results that you are looking for.

It is Difficult Dealing with Physician and Clinician Preference Issues

Let’s face it; it is no fun dealing with physicians and clinicians when it comes to making changes to their product, service or technology mix in the name of value analysis and supply expense reductions.  Who wants to tell the ENT doctor that he has to stop using his favorite harmonic scalpel  and move to a (perceived) lower grade alternative.  Or tell an orthopedic surgeon that she cannot implant the Rolls Royce of a hip implant that she has been using since medical school?  Why can't we just skip this part of our jobs?

We Know What We Need to Do, We Just Need the Win-Win System that Puts it All Together for Us

The fact is that hospitals are overspending on non-standardized, functionally over-specified and feature-rich products that drive their costs through the roof and hurt the bottom line.  We know exactly what we need to do to get the supply expenses reduced:  change of product, standardize for volume discounts, eliminate all the products bells and whistles, etc. – but how do we get the users (physicians and clinicians) to understand?  How do we get these changes to happen without torturing the messengers (us) every time?

The 6-Step Clinical Value Analysis Process is Your Key to Success!

 

This tele-seminar will focus on one of the biggest challenges facing healthcare organizations - gaining physicians’ buy-in and fostering communication between clinical and supply-chain departments.  This is especially challenging as physicians and clinicians are satisfied with the products (services and technology) they are using due to their knowledge and familiarity of how those products, services and technologies work.  This familiarity gives them great comfort that makes it even harder to make any change.

This tele-seminar will teach you a proven repeatable system:

  • How to strategically plan your supply savings initiatives with physicians and clinicians in mind 

  • How to achieve a new level of credibility with your physicians and clinicians

  • How to avoid political pitfalls

  • You will learn the #1 law of change-management that will guide you with the: who, what, when, where and how to encourage physician participation in proposed changes

  • How to convince your physicians and clinicians that change is necessary (and good!)

  • How to ask all the right questions in order to harness the power and experience of those inside your organization 

This system is straightforward and easy to follow but best of all - you do not have to be a clinician to use these successful strategies!
  • Learn the 6-Step Clinical Value Analysis Process TM for making change happen for all supply savings initiatives

  • Understand what data elements to present and what not to present so you don't waste your physicians' time and yours

  • How to gain helpful insights before you present your findings to your physicians and clinicians

  • How scientific methods can gain your physicians’ and clinicians’ buy-in faster and with less resistance or road blocks

  • You will learn a secret, time tested formula to prepare your physicians to accept even a major change at your healthcare organization

  • How to deal with the X-Factor - the vendor representative

IMPORTANT: I am only taking 100 attendees for this tele-seminar, because I want to keep the group to a manageable size to allow you to ask questions at the end of the program
