Moving health care forward together
Our aggregation groups are shared business ventures that accelerate return on investment (ROI) through the power of scale. We enable members to drive value together through shared ownership models that move health care forward. Together, members share and apply proven methods to form, manage and sustain groups, helping them maximize benefits and avoid common pitfalls.
Vizient pioneered the supply network concept as a way to deliver greater contract value to like-minded members. Today, Vizient has taken the supply network concept to the next level.
Through Vizient Aggregation Solutions, health systems can expand beyond traditional group purchase organization (GPO) services and connect with like-minded members to achieve their strategic goals, from cutting costs to improving patient care.
Member aggregation groups focus on topics such as reducing supply chain spend, physician and clinician alignment, increasing health system efficiencies and collaboration on best practice solutions leading to improved patient outcomes.
Benefits of networks that drive value
- Achieve greater savings and operational efficiencies through scale
- Collaborate with like-minded members to share best practices
