Abstract:
Healthcare institutions have been searching for ways to increase the value they deliver to patients and to society. Innovation is an effective way to boost this value, and procurement strategies are key to bringing innovation into healthcare organizations. However, hospitals are one of the most challenging organizations to implement innovations. Thus, this research highlights some lessons learned and the best practices of a healthcare organization in Denmark that has successfully implemented the value-based procurement approach.
