HPN
Hall of Fame
In the Byzantine world of healthcare purchasing, products and processes may matter the most but overall people make the difference. People evaluate, acquire, use and dispose of products, as well as adopt and implement processes to operate more cost-effectively and efficiently. While it may not be rocket science, it's definitely an art form to influence and negotiate with others to achieve a common purpose. Since its inception in 1977 Healthcare Purchasing News has recognized this and has chronicled people's stories of success and failure-on-the-road-to-success, from which readers can learn and propel the profession. From those efforts emerged a series of awards bestowed on the best and brightest of the industry. SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT DEPT. OF THE YEAR S.U.R.E. Award for Supply Chain-Focused CEOs Saluting Healthcare Purchasing News Leaders Healthcare Purchasing News has recognized and honored materials management leaders, focusing on department directors and key executives between 1986 and 2000. In 2004, however, HPN expanded the honor to the annual “Materials Management Department of the Year” award, which acknowledges the dedication of the entire staff for effective and efficient supply management. We salute those men and women we’ve profiled in the past, many of whom have since changed jobs or retired, as well as the noteworthy hospitals with top-notch teams. 2011 - WellStar Health System, Atlanta, GA 2010 - Broward Health, Ft.
