Optimize Supply Chain Performance with Data that Delivers

Supply chain performance is key to improving margins and care delivery. Optimization isn’t just cost-cutting—it’s aligning clinical, operational, and financial data to support outcomes and sustainability. Health Catalyst empowers leaders with connected insights to spot inefficiencies, align teams, and build sustainable supply chain strategies. Whether for one service line or system-wide, we help turn complexity into clarity.

Gain Line-of-Sight into the True Cost of Care

Traditional costing methods rely on averages that miss the full picture. We connect cost data to clinical detail for a more accurate, actionable view.

  • Analyze cost by case, provider, and facility.
  • Highlight variation and outliers that drive excess spend.
  • Connect cost to outcomes for a clearer view of value.

Result: Precision insights to identify waste and optimize care delivery.

Strengthen Surgical and Procedural Margin Performance

Surgical areas are high-cost and high-impact. We help you track performance, identify improvement opportunities, and manage margins in real time.

  • Assess procedure margins by surgeons and service lines.
  • Align supply use and reimbursement to prevent loss.
  • Uncover costly patterns in supply use or workflow variation.

Result: Smarter, more sustainable procedural performance.

Trusted Data Equals Better Decisions

With accurate, timely insights into cost and utilization, health systems are better equipped to optimize supply use, reduce waste, and support financially sustainable care. These aren’t just supply chain improvements—they’re enterprise-wide gains.

Streamline Preference Card and Inventory Mangement

Manual processes increase supply waste and staff burden. We make preference card optimization easy—and effective.

  • Flag unused, duplicate, or outdated supplies.
  • Standardize card content based on actual usage.
  • Reduce delays, stockouts, and excess inventory.

Result: More efficient ORs and lower material waste.

Unite Finance, Clinical, and Supply Chain Teams

Sustainable savings require cross-functional alignment. We provide a shared view of performance that builds trust and drives results.

  • Deliver dashboards tailored to each role.
  • Measure and communicate initiative impact.
  • Support ongoing collaboration with trusted data.

Result: Stronger alignment, better decisions, and shared wins.

Why Health Catalyst?

Most supply chain tools weren’t designed for healthcare’s complexity. They lack the clinical context, connected data, and actionable visibility needed to make real change. We offer a smarter, healthcare-native approach.
