CDW Healthcare Receives HealthTrust Vendor Excellence Award for Second Year


CDW Healthcare, a provider of technology solutions for healthcare, has again been named a winner of a HealthTrust Vendor Excellence Award. HealthTrust Purchasing Group, L.P., a group purchasing organization that supports nearly 1,400 not-for-profit and for-profit acute care facilities, and 10,600 ambulatory surgery centers, physician practices and alternate care sites, presents the awards each year.

CDW Healthcare was one of 10 award winners, selected based on quality, customer service, product service and quality, on-time delivery and billing accuracy. This is the second year in a row that CDW has won the award.

Working with more than 15,000 healthcare organizations nationwide, CDW Healthcare’s customers range from small, rural providers to large, integrated delivery networks, to which the company provides services from infrastructure through point of care.

“Because every organization working with HealthTrust already offers competitive pricing, vendor excellence comes down to expertise, experience and commitment,” said Bob Rossi, vice president of CDW Healthcare, in a statement.

The awards are presented every year. In 2009 Standard Register, of which HealthTrust Purchasing Group is a part, said that it had saved member companies $8.43 million in three years in reducing document management costs and improving operating efficiencies.

Document management is a hidden cost in India and all over the world, according to Vertika Yadav. A 2005 survey found that searching for documents accounts for more than four hours a month for an average employee, and the time taken to recreate lost documents is more than six hours a month.
