Central Region Update

The Central Region wanted to be able to connect regularly, so we started a CST Region Connect meeting, to be held once a quarter. We did a one-hour call over lunch Sept. 16 and had four topics with four speakers for 15 mins each.

This meeting was titled “Value Analysis Now, more than ever.”

The topics discussed were:

• Ways to think outside the box (examples) and pitch in where needed
• Supply Disruption – quickly finding alternatives
• Looking to your GPO for help
• Future standardization – what will that look like?

We are looking forward to our next meeting, to be held on Jan. 13. If other regions would like to join, we’d be happy to include them!
