🔹 Strengthening European Healthcare Procurement: The Role of Country Nodes in the PROCURE Project 🔹 The PROCURE project is driving a new era of healthcare procurement across Europe. With 24 partners across 11 Member States, this EU-funded initiative is addressing the procurement challenges highlighted during the COVID-19 pandemic—making healthcare procurement more resilient, efficient, and transparent. At the heart of this transformation is the creation of Country Nodes—collaborative networks of healthcare organisations, contracting authorities, private procurers, and suppliers—working together to shape evidence-based procurement policies and foster innovation. 🌍 Why Country Nodes Matter: ✅ Influence policy – Contribute to recommendations shaping EU healthcare procurement. ✅ Gain recognition – Be part of a leading network driving procurement innovation. ✅ Expand collaboration – Connect with key stakeholders across Europe. 🔎 Key Achievements: 📊 148 organisations across 10 Member States joined the Observational Study. 🏥 57 Contracting Authorities, 17 Private Procurers, 9 Healthcare Institutions, and 65 Suppliers contributed valuable insights. By uniting diverse stakeholders, PROCURE is ensuring that healthcare procurement evolves to meet future challenges—reinforcing resilient, transparent, and efficient healthcare systems across the EU. 📢 This work was carried out by Resah and showcases the power of collaboration in shaping the future of European healthcare procurement. 🔗 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/gj5e_sZa #EU4Health #EUfunded #HealthUnion #PROCUREProject #HealthcareProcurement #PublicProcurement #Innovation #EUHealth #SustainableHealthcare #Collaboration #RESAH
About us
PROCURE is an EU Project that brings together 26 partners from 13 EU countries, including public and private organisations (public buyers, central purchasing bodies, regional health agencies, alliance of private hospitals, vendors, etc.) and other supporting organisations involved in healthcare public procurement, to undertake an assessment of public procurement practices to ensure they are managed effectively and efficiently. The PROCURE assessment will focus on the impact the COVID-19 pandemic had on procurement organisations and practices from the 13 participating EU Member Sites. By means of comparison with the procurement processes prior to the pandemic, PROCURE will determine what changed and identify new strategies, action plans and policies that have been incorporated into public procurement as a result of the COVID-19 crisis.
