Jay moved his team beyond inherited contracts, fragmented service decisions, and one-size-fits-all coverage toward an evidence-based model that reduces cost while protecting clinical readiness. He anchors this session as the primary peer voice, sharing what the transformation took and what he learned along the way.

Health systems face relentless pressure to reduce operating costs, and service spend rarely escapes that pressure. But cost reduction cannot come at the expense of clinical readiness. When service decisions come down to price alone, health systems create new risk. When they default to inherited coverage, they preserve avoidable cost.


There is a smarter path between those two extremes. Evidence-based service strategy connects every service decision to asset criticality, internal capability, vendor quality, and total cost. It answers the questions that matter: which assets require OEM support, which move to qualified alternatives, where in-house teams take on more strategic work, and where flexible service models reduce cost without compromising uptime or quality.
