Description
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) is seeking to renew its existing subscription to the Emergency Care Research Institute (ECRI) Medical Data Subscription. This subscription provides medical/surgical supply benchmarking data, which is used to negotiate the best prices for medical/surgical supplies. The ECRI data is unique in that it is aggregated from commercial hospitals and provides comprehensive pricing information, including 12-month commercial average price and 12-month commercial low price. The DLA has determined that continuing the subscription with ECRI is the best option to meet its needs, as alternative data subscriptions would require significant analyst and developer labor costs to incorporate into current processes.
Key features of the subscription include:
* Medical/surgical supply benchmarking data
* Comprehensive pricing information
* 12-month commercial average price and 12-month commercial low price
* Data aggregated from commercial hospitals
* Unique data feed that requires significant labor costs to replace
