Vendormate Selected by Georgia Hospital Health Services as Endorsed Vendor for Procurement Cycle Management
Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) July 18, 2013 -- Georgia Hospital Health Services (GHHS), the shared services subsidiary of the Georgia Hospital Association, has endorsed Vendormate as the partner-of-choice for procurement cycle management solutions to include Medzo™ sourcing manager, Contract Manager with a business associate agreement (BAA) component and Credential Manager. In a three year cooperative marketing agreement, GHHS has committed to use Vendormate Contract Manager as a solution for managing their vendor contracts and business associate agreements (BAAs).
Vendormate is best known for pioneering the Credential Manager solution, which enables healthcare organizations to ensure onsite vendors measure up to the strict standards of business, ethics and patient care required by their industry. Staying in trend with evolving requirements, Vendormate developed a complete procurement cycle management suite to address challenges such as managing vendor company-level data for onboarding and purchase-to-payment controls, locating diversity- and other-qualified healthcare suppliers, managing business associates as required by HIPAA and reducing spend via a more controlled contracting and renewal process.
“Our partnership with GHHS is a compliment to us,” said Vendormate CEO Andy Monin. “They recognize the value Vendormate brings to healthcare providers in solving their procurement cycle challenges and have afforded us the opportunity to drive our value to their members.”
