    Rising costs driven by inflation are putting pressure on medical practices, making it increasingly difficult to sustain quality care while maintaining financial stability. Many of these expenses stem from both medical and non-medical supply budgets. Group purchasing organizations (GPOs) play a critical role in cost reduction, but recent shifts in the GPO landscape are impacting members’ ability to maximize savings. In this session, attendees will learn how to keep their medical practices ahead of these changes, optimize purchasing strategies, and drive greater cost efficiency without compromising patient care.

    This 60-minute product demonstration will provide you with the knowledge to:

    • Apply MGMA BestPrice’s GPO program to combat rising costs and maximize savings
    • Evaluate the impact of committed versus uncommitted GPO models on purchasing power
    • Identify exclusive cost-saving opportunities available through MGMA BestPrice’s GPO

    Brought to you by MGMA BestPrice
