Recap of a Great MCAHRMM Spring Conference!

Miga Solutions had an excellent time at the Minnesota Chapter of the Association for Healthcare & Materials Management (MCAHRMM) Spring conference last Thursday, June 8th at Izaty’s Golf Resort in Onamia, MN.

The Miga crew strategically positioned themselves in the most coveted spot at the poolside expo… the shade! It was a hot, sunny day so the Miga booth was well-attended!

During the conference Miga spoke with many supply chain leaders at both large and small healthcare organizations in Minnesota. Not surprisingly, there was one constant theme that rang true in all of our discussions – that having the right data is incredibly important when trying to make the best spending decisions around capital equipment.

We wanted to thank Andrea Scofield, the MCAHRMM Conference Chair, for putting on a great event. We also look forward to participating in the Fall conference in the Twin Cities!

Please keep checking our blog for more updates about future events Miga will be attending in the coming months. We look forward to seeing everyone soon!

Know the right price.

And get it.

Having the right information saves hospitals time and money on medical equipment lifecycle costs.
