E-Procurement for General Practice
In order to support General Practice and drive business efficiencies the IMO has begun the development of an E-Procurement Module. The aim of this project is to maximise the purchasing power of GPs across a range of goods and services such as Medical Supplies, Office Equipment and Stationary, Utilities and Phone, IT Costs and Professional Services.
The E-Procurement Model will be an online service for IMO members and we intend to negotiate discounts with a number of suppliers. This model will allow GPs and Practice Managers to better manage purchasing within the practice.
The model will be delivered over a number of stages and Phase 1 will be available online for GP members from October 2012.
