The Preference Group
Get your clinical and financial staffers working together. And succeed.
You understand the dilemma. Physicians make supply choices that can affect the bottom line of healthcare providers. We can help get everyone together to realize savings in categories ranging from orthopedic and cardiac implants to medication usage.
That's the job of The Preference Group®. A key part of The Broadlane Group®, our unique approach—see the full range of options below—helps physicians and executives pursue the same goal.
Surgical Services Assessment
Orthopedics. Trauma products. Neurological and spine. Broadlane's assessment will suggest opportunities for savings through physician alignment and expert product knowledge.
Surgical Compliance Assessment
The Surgical Compliance Assessment can alert you to any potential problems before a potential audit.
Pharmacy Operations Assessment
The Pharmacy Operations Assessment will report on everything from your inventory management to your labor, offering realistic ways to improve efficiency.
Antimicrobial Stewardship Assessment
Many healthcare providers overprescribe antibiotics—leading to in-hospital infections and resistant strains of diseases—or pay too much for antibiotics. The Antimicrobial Stewardship Assessment tackles both issues.
Cardiovascular Services Program
Limiting cardiovascular costs requires product knowledge, understanding the process, negotiation skills and speed to the contract phase. The Preference Group has them all.
Spine and Neurological Program
Complex products, new products and multiple vendors make spine and neurological products one of the most confusing categories in the industry. Our experienced team can empower you to cut through the confusion to achieve significant savings.
Orthopedic Management Program
Controlling orthopedic implant costs requires real teamwork. Broadlane will help bring your physicians and executives together to make consensus decisions on implants. We then secure the dramatic discounts you deserve from vendors.
Medication Use Management
Medication costs rise consistently year-after-year. However, in many cases, expensive categories of medications are not prescribed according to well-documented effectiveness protocols. We can help you focus on standardizing drug usage protocols, driving savings of 5% to 7%.
Value Analysis Management
Value analysis programs are a key way to set clinical consensus about supply use. Well-run programs result in better patient care and reduced costs. Our experts can structure and manage yours for maximum results.
