The Alliance initiated a new phase in our vendor management, accountability, performance, and contracting efforts. This session updates you on our progress and provides VALUABLE insights regarding vendor management decisions for member health plans. We have been missing opportunities to help our members be more effective, more informed buyers of services because we don't have current information on vendor performance and member buying intentions. Our vision is to develop a tool to aid our members with purchasing and vendor management efforts.
