Doctor A spends $346.56 on supplies for his cataract cases, Doctor B $350.32 and Doctor C $314.32. Give or take a few, they all spend about 30 minutes in the OR per case. And they all use the same $116 cataract pack, $107 IOL and $72 phaco tip. So, how would you get Drs. A and B to act more like Dr. C? One strategy is to show the two outliers a list of supplies all three have in common along with a list of supplies that differ - one's choice in ointment, miotic or blade, for example. That might drive home the point that there's a way to save and, look, here's the proof. Is your facility already saving all that it can, or does your materials manager need to trim a few cents per case from the supply budget? Read on to find out.
