Dr. Pritish Tosh, consultant physician in Infectious Diseases, and Supply Chain Management specialist for Mayo Clinic talks through the relationship between our clinical delivery of care and the strength of our supply chain practices. Our recent experiences with facemasks in the pandemic, the daily threats to medication access, and the events of recent longshoreman strike as well as Hurricane Helene damage to saline production locations has shown us how valuable it is to understand our supply chain. In this chapter, Alex and Venk, get schooled on the importance of this understanding, the basics of how to assess the stability of supply chain, and how to be advocates for a healthy supply chain infrastructure moving forward.
