We make the U.S. healthcare system run better by improving clinical, financial and operational outcomes for our healthcare provider customers.
Meeting the needs of the entire continuum of healthcare
The continuum of healthcare means providing consistent, integrated health services across a range of care settings. That’s why our medical device & equipment supply chain experts are ready to serve every care point, from IDNs to independent care facilities. We work with you to achieve consistent, quality care and control costs.
Cobra Medical continues to serve the healthcare community and specialty areas so we can meet the demand for medical equipment / devices. Three key pillars can provide a strong foundation for a dependable supply chain:
Resilience
At Cobra Medical we are continually building continuous process improvement, redundancy, and contingency planning into the system, providing surety of supply as well as identifying and proactively mitigating potential points of failure. We work closely with supplier and manufacturer partners to optimize our inventory levels despite constraints, secure backup products and alternatives where available, and obtain supply from multiple manufacturers, when possible.
We’re also creating models and ways of working such as a dynamic, cross-functional team of clinical and supply chain professionals – to monitor, communicate and respond to supply chain trends. We have the right scale and solutions to support emerging and diversified suppliers with new product launches to bring greater supply to market.
Intelligence
Building real-time visibility of the medical supply chain delivers actionable insights in both the supply and demand sides of the equation. This provides a better understanding of what is actually happening, enabling a closer balance of demand and supply, anticipating disruptions or shortages, and providing insights for Cobra Medical channel participants about how to efficiently manage their inventories.
Equitability
At Cobra Medical we understand that public and private sectors must collaborate and strive to achieve a supply chain where all healthcare providers and settings of care have equitable access to critical drugs for their patients.
Medical distributors can play a vital role in managing access and availability when supply disruptions or shortages occur. As a leading medical equipment distributor, Cobra Medical is often called upon to fairly manage constrained inventory. We have an equitable allocation program in place that helps ensure medical equipment / devices are distributed across the country, including to health systems, chain retailers, community pharmacies, specialty clinics and care facilities that reach underserved communities and populations.
