Pack compare

Savings opportunities

Side-by-side pack comparison is available for your convenience.

A penny saved is a penny earned.

With this feature, you can run a side-by-side comparison of multiple procedure packs in Excel®, allowing you to identify similarities and differences between packs. For example, if you have two different orthopedic packs for two different doctors, you can run a report that will show you the side-by-side comparison of the pack’s contents, allowing you to identify potential cost savings and standardization opportunities.

The pack compare page provides:

• Ability to see exact or similar component matches • Opportunities to standardize • Access to detailed report comparisons

You’re always under pressure to keep your costs down. PackManager’s® savings opportunities helps you identify ways to lower the cost of your procedure pack. You have the flexibility to look at just one pack, or see what the opportunity is for your entire facility. Once you’ve identified where your opportunities are, you can see what components are driving the most savings.

The savings opportunities page provides: • Components with potential savings • Packs with savings opportunities • Estimated end sell price after savings* • Estimated annual savings

In addition to comparing your custom packs, you can also compare a custom pack to a Cardinal Health standard pack.

Standardization

What if…

Quickly identify standardization opportunities in your existing packs to help cut costs and streamline your clinical practices and supply chain.

What if you could make your own changes?

Having a difficult time standardizing items across your supply chain? Want to identify all the different items used in your procedure pack program and look for standardization opportunities? Look no further! With the standardization feature in PackManager®, you have access to view all the items used across your procedure pack program, along with usage. You can quickly look for the more commonly used items and consider your standardization options. If you notice you are using five different skin markers, perhaps there is an opportunity to standardize down to one or two.

The standardization page provides: • Ability to review, print and download detailed reports to help you make informed decisions

With PackManager’s® “What if” capabilities, you can make changes to your custom procedure packs when you need to. When you make the necessary changes, an email with your requested changes is sent directly to your Cardinal Health sales representative.

• Ability to identify item standardization opportunities

• Access to drag and drop components from “search” to “add,” using the PackManager® parts search • Ability to delete a component from your bill of material • Option to replace the current component with a different component • Ability to change the quantity of the current component
