My observation, as a member of the Value Analysis Committee which is a multi-disciplinary committee charge with reviewing, trialing, and recommending new patient care products and supplies, has been that we could achieve better cost savings, uality, and value added service from our suppliers if there was a state-wide UC committee to review, test, and approve all patient care products and supplies. This would allow us to leverage our spend across medical centers and campuses, and ensure standardization across UC.
