System’s Gallion Proprietary Digital Solution Developed at its iHarbor Innovation Center
BALTIMORE, January 07, 2025–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The University of Maryland Medical System (UMMS) has been selected as a finalist in the Gartner Power of the Profession Supply Chain Awards 2025, in the Process or Technology Innovation of the Year category. UMMS is included for Transforming Bill-Only Product Management in Healthcare Supply Chain; the System’s Gallion is a digital technology cutting-edge solution designed to optimize supply chain efficiency that was developed by UMMS’ iHarbor Innovation Center.
“We believe that being included as a finalist in the Gartner awards underscores the critical impact that UMMS has demonstrated so far in optimizing health care bill-only supply chain management and that it could have in the future on patient care,” said Warren D’Souza, PhD, MBA, the System’s Senior Vice President and Chief Innovation Officer. “In our opinion, this recognition validates our focus on streamlining processes and empowering health systems with innovative, integrated solutions.”
Gallion’s innovative solution redefines the management of bill-only transactions by digitizing and standardizing workflows, enhancing accuracy, compliance, and efficiency. The platform seamlessly integrates with electronic health record (EHR) and enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, automating critical tasks such as consumption tracking, charges and contract compliance. Before Gallion’s implementation in 2021 automated these processes, UMMS relied on a manual labor-intensive paper-based process that had the potential for errors and inefficiencies. Data from the deployment of Gallion across UMMS’ 11 hospitals shows significant operational improvements; completion time has been reduced by 75% and the defect/error rate has lowered from 18% to just 3%.
“At UMMS, part of what we pride ourselves on is innovation and being at the forefront of transformative change in health care,” said Mohan Suntha, MD, MBA, the System’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “We believe this recognition underscores Gallion’s impact as a pioneering solution in health care supply chain innovation.”
