Healthcare Logistics and the Infrastructure of Care Delivery
IN A NUTSHELL:
- Public and private health systems across BC are modernizing front-line care, but the backend procurement of medical equipment remains reliant on manual, paper-based workflows.
Acorn Interactive recently modernized a medical device provider’s supply chain operations by building a custom digital catalog and automated inquiry engine to digitize their complex inventory and streamline procurement.
Care providers, such as occupational therapy firms, community care teams, and hospital discharge planners, can leverage digitized catalogs to submit direct equipment requisitions and reduce administrative delays.
Translating these front-line integrations to a systems level can help health authorities and hospital networks unify complex care pathways, remove administrative friction, and improve patient flow.
While scaling toward broader health systems, Acorn continues to partner with equipment providers to bring modern e-commerce capabilities to medical supply chains.
