Supporting Non-Acute Care Expansion with Confidence

Health care delivery is shifting—and fast. Patient volume is moving out of traditional hospital settings and into non-acute sites across the continuum of care. If you're part of an Integrated Delivery Network (IDN), you're already feeling the impact: more sites, more complexity, and a greater need for efficiency and control.

At Henry Schein, we know what it takes to help you scale non-acute care without sacrificing quality, cost, or coordination. We’ve been doing it for over 90 years.

Why Non-Acute Care is the Future of Health Systems

The U.S. healthcare system is undergoing a fundamental transformation. As more patients seek care outside the hospital, health systems are expanding into outpatient clinics, urgent care centers, ambulatory surgery centers, and other non-acute sites.

According to McKinsey & Company, 55% of health systems plan to grow revenue through mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures. That’s not just growth—it’s reinvention. And with that comes the need for smart, connected supply chains that support a seamless patient experience.

You need more than a vendor. You need a strategic partner that can evolve with you.

Integrated Delivery Networks: Streamlining the Non-Acute Supply Chain

The Challenge

Managing dozens—or hundreds—of non-acute locations can lead to supply chain fragmentation. Each site has different ordering processes, product needs, and inventory systems, all of which make coordination time-consuming and costly.

The Solution

Henry Schein brings clarity to the chaos. We work across your entire IDN to standardize supply chain operations, reduce waste, and improve visibility at every level. Our approach helps you unlock site-level savings while scaling your health system more efficiently.

The Result

Better operational performance. Lower total cost of care. More time focused on delivering patient care—not managing logistics.
