Providing high-quality care takes an entire team and even depends on having the right supplies and equipment available at the right time. That’s why Northeast Georgia Health System (NGHS) was recently honored with Global Healthcare Exchange’s (GHX) Supply Chains of Distinction Award for 2025.
The Supply Chains of Distinction Award honors top-performing health systems that are driving best-in-class efficiencies by most successfully executing perfect order metrics during a calendar year. NGHS was one of 24 systems across the nation to win this award in the medium-sized organization category.
“Our supply chain team plays an important role in providing safe, high-quality care across our health system, and this recognition shows that commitment,” said Kevin Phelps, vice president of Supply Chain Management for NGHS. “By leveraging data, automation and strong partnerships, we’re not only improving efficiency behind the scenes, but we’re also helping ensure our patients and care teams have exactly what they need, when they need it.”
