Through a shared commitment to strengthening community care, Ovation crafted a forward-looking spend management strategy rooted in transparency and innovation, equipping Cottage Hospital with the tools to strengthen their supply chain and deepen their community impact.
Challenge
Cottage Hospital is a 35-bed Critical Access Hospital that has served the residents of Upper Connecticut Valley for over 120 years. They are well known for their culture of excellence and for putting patients first. To continue in their mission of strengthening the health of their community, Cottage Hospital partnered with Ovation Healthcare for their spend management needs, supporting their continued delivery of cutting-edge services at a reasonable cost.
Solution
Leveraging the collective strength of Ovation’s $56 billion-dollar group purchasing organization membership, the team created a tailored approach that helped Cottage Hospital streamline sourcing, reduce costs, and achieve a more resilient supply chain. Through Ovation’s shared data, innovative analytics tools, and dedicated experts, we ensured that their operational and financial goals were met.
Results
Cottage Hospital realized $250,000 in total savings, strengthening their operational and financial efficiency. These initial results are creating lasting opportunities for continued investment into the health and vibrancy of their community.
Testimonial
“Ovation has been a saving grace for this facility. From the start, the Ovation team took on the implementation with us and jumped right in. Every question we had along the way was answered in a timely fashion. Not only were they professional, but they were really easy to work with. We were able to save our critical access hospital $250,000.00 by switching to Ovation’s spend management solutions. Highly recommend the team at Ovation!”
