Pair that with slowed population growth, and the math becomes clear: future growth increasingly depends on winning patients who are currently going somewhere else. Premier's latest article breaks down what it takes to capture competitor market share — and why precision, not scale, is the new growth strategy. Read more: premierinc.com/newsroom/insi…
