3. Reverse Medical Your hospital is given its own web-portal; with one click, you can invite vendors to bid for your business in a real-time environment. We make sure that your sourcing and procurement event runs smoothly and that you realize maximum savings with a minimum of effort. How the Reverse Auction works: In a web based real time reverse auction , your hospital or private practice is the buyer, and equipment suppliers are the bidders. You initiate a web based reverse auction for a specific budget range of capital for disposable equipment or services through Reverse Medical . We will assist you in making sure that the timing, correct suppliers and contacts result in a satisfactory bid response.

4. Reverse Medical Once the web based reverse auction starts suppliers compete against each other to win your business, driving down the price in the process. Because suppliers can see the price they are competing against, but not who they are competing with, they are much more aggressive in discounting. Once the sourcing event is over, the buyer has the information he or she needs to make an informed decision, and is able to award with the click of a mouse. Because suppliers submit multiple bids in response to pressure, they have more opportunities to earn a buyer’s business then in a closed format. Effectively driving down prices to new lows is what makes Reverse Medical your one stop procurement specialist.
