From Fragile to Future-ready: Shift from Reactive to Proactive Operations with GHX ResiliencyAI

Presented by: Benjamin Peyronnin, Director, Product Management, GHX

GHX recently unveiled ResiliencyAI, a suite of data and AI-driven capabilities designed to help strengthen the resilience of the healthcare supply chain in the face of ongoing disruptions and increasing fragility. This session will explore how these innovations are helping healthcare organizations to improve resiliency, reduce risk and shift from reactive firefighting to proactive foresight. Plus, learn how you can partner with GHX to harness the power of data and AI and take strategic steps toward building a more resilient, future-ready supply chain for all.

Redefining Reach: Optimizing Cost to Serve in a Growing Non-acute Network

As health systems continue to expand across outpatient, specialty, and ambulatory settings, supply chain leaders are being asked to do more—with less. This session will focus on redefining distribution strategy as a lever for cost-to-serve reduction, operational resilience, and scalable growth. We’ll examine:

Using data to identify standardization and LUM opportunities
Addressing the logistical and staffing challenges
Building flexible distribution models to reduce risk and increase agility
Elevating supply chain's role as a strategic partner in non-acute expansion

Join fellow executives for a candid, solutions-focused dialogue on turning supply complexity into a competitive advantage—and new strategies to align cost, care, and growth.

From Pressure to Performance: Turning Today’s Supply Chain Challenges into Strategic Wins

Healthcare supply chain leaders are facing mounting pressures: margin squeeze, workforce shortages, and constant disruption. In this interactive session, we’ll break down the five biggest challenges systems are facing today—and how cross-functional advisory strategies are helping turn those pain points into performance drivers. From regulatory hurdles to clinical alignment, you’ll gain insights to build resilience and drive measurable impact within your health system.

From Tactics to Transformation: Elevating the Ambulatory Supply Chain
