Blanchard Valley Health System Has Cut Print Costs And Increased Efficiency.

By Bob Neubauer

"People are ordering smaller quantities more often, and that really helps reduce the waste," remarks Radabaugh. As a result, BVHS has been able to reduce printing costs by $118,000 over the past two years.

Leach is emphatic about the value of having an in-plant.

"I think the print shop is an extremely valuable tool for organizations to have," she declares. BVHS considered outsourcing its in-plant, she notes, but that would not have eliminated printing costs. By retaining and improving the print shop the health system is able to more closely monitor and control what its associates print, saving money.
