Transforming Health Care Supply Chain Challenges into Opportunity

Advantus Health Partners began as an innovative supply chain department within a large health system. Its strategic approach successfully navigated extreme supply chain fluctuations during the Covid pandemic, enabling critical protection and patient care. One thing quickly became clear: Traditional, transactional approaches to the health care supply chain were no longer working. And Advantus could share its unique supply chain model to help other health systems succeed.
