Case Study: Memorial Hospital at Gulfport achieves supply chain savings and improved contract compliance with GHX Lumere

Memorial Hospital at Gulfport Transforms Supply Chain Into a Strategic Arm with GHX Lumere

Memorial Hospital at Gulfport struggled with an ineffective supply chain process, lacking collaboration and credibility. Their product decisions were based on clinical preference and price rather than evidence, making it difficult to manage expenses and contract compliance. To address this, they partnered with vendor GHX and implemented its GHX Lumere software suite and advisory service.

With GHX Lumere's support, the hospital established new workflows and five active supply chain committees. Using GHX's vendor-agnostic data and evidence, they gained the credibility to hold effective conversations with physicians. This resulted in a more judicious approval process, with only 33% of new product requests approved annually, leading to significant cost control and improved contract compliance.
