Summary
Episode 86 of Healthtech Talks explores how AI is helping hospitals predict supply chain disruptions before they happen. Lucas and Luna dive into the case of Intermountain Health, which uses machine learning to forecast shortages of IV fluids, surgical gloves, and other critical supplies. They discuss how the system analyzes historical usage data, supplier performance, and external signals like weather events and geopolitical risks to give procurement teams a 30-day early warning. The hosts also touch on the cost savings—up to 15 percent reduction in emergency purchasing—and the patient safety implications. A concrete look at how predictive analytics is moving beyond clinical applications into hospital operations. #SupplyChainAI #HospitalOperations #PredictiveAnalytics #IntermountainHealth #HealthcareLogistics #MedicalSupplyChain #AIProcurement #Healthtech #BusinessAndTechnology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #DigitalHealth #MachineLearning #PatientSafety #InventoryManagement #HospitalManagement #DataDriven #HealthcareInnovation Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
