Keeping Patients Informed
With patients turning to hospitals now more than ever during this crisis, how are you helping to keep patients informed while not creating additional workload and outreach for physicians and staff?
To help hospitals tackle this growing challenge, Flywire, corporate sponsor of SCHA, has introduced a FREE COVID-19 Chatbot to the market. Now you can provide patients with real-time, round-the-clock answers to their most pressing concerns without having to over tax your resources.

Lower Energy and Maintenance Costs
Vivid Energies, endorsed partner of Solvent Networks, can help cut energy costs and enhance security through indoor and outdoor LED lighting solutions. Replacing fluorescent lights with LED bulbs can save up to 70 percent of energy costs for lighting and HVAC, since LEDs emit less heat than other bulbs. LED bulbs are known to last 25 times longer than incandescent, which can lower maintenance costs. Email Kristin Hill and we’ll set you up with Stuart Lenning for a FREE consultation.
Supply Chain Resilience
Vizient, SCHA corporate sponsor and endorsed partner of Solvent Networks, launched a supply chain resilience solution with One Network, evolving the way we manage performance of the healthcare supply chain. Vizient members and supplier partners on the platform help support transparency across the healthcare value chain. As providers make plans to ramp elective surgeries, it will be critical to orchestrate increased supply demand with suppliers. Vizient’s resilience solution allows for order and demand forecast collaboration aiding providers to express what demand they’ll need ahead of placing orders. This will better position distributors and manufacturers to plan for those demand surges. This is being offer at NO CHARGE to suppliers and members through July 20.
