Aspirus Health has
been recognized by healthcare supply chain leader Global Healthcare Exchange
(GHX) as a recipient of the inaugural 2023 Supply Chains of Distinction Award.
The Supply Chains of
Distinction Award honors the top performing hospitals and health systems in
North America that excelled in driving best-in-class supply chain operations in
2023.
“Aspirus is
gratified to receive this recognition from one of the most respected and
innovative names in this industry,” says Aspirus Health Vice President &
Chief Supply Chain Officer Stephen Spencer. GHX has been an excellent partner,
providing the roadmap and capabilities needed to modernize and optimize our
supply chain.”
The award is based
upon a set of “perfect order” metrics, rated as a percentage of PO lines sent
across the GHX Exchange (integrated) that are touchless and completely
automated, from purchase through payment.
“I am incredibly
proud of my team for embracing the opportunities that technology has unlocked
and doing the hard work to deliver the efficiencies and service level that care
providers across our organization deserve and depend on,” says Spencer. “This distinction
shows that Aspirus is a leader in more than just providing quality health
care.”
“The Supply Chains
of Distinction Award honors organizations that are redefining supply chain
excellence and setting the standard for healthcare supply chains of the
future,” said Tina Vatanka Murphy, president and CEO, GHX. “By embracing
digital and data transformation, organizations like Aspirus are contributing
