e-Business Initiative

 

Keeping Members Connected to Our e-Business Efforts

Begining in March, AmeriNet has focused on interacting with e-business solution providers, AmeriNet shareholders, members and trading partners to help develop both a profile of the e-business solution provider marketplace and, more importantly, an understanding of our members' e-business needs.

From these efforts, AmeriNet has developed several vital e-business principles designed to serve as a foundation for all future e-business projects:

  • AmeriNet will only pursue, adopt, and implement Internet technologies that provide measurable evidence of removing cost from the health care suppliy chain.

  • AmeriNet will only pursue, adopt, and implement Internet technologies that are needed and desired by our healthcare provider members, as well as our contracted product suppliers. Additionally, AmeriNet will develop valid e-business solutions between its members and their trading partners.

  • AmeriNet will continue to enrich and expand its existing Members Only web site to maximize communications and the flow of information to its healthcare provider members and will continue to enhance the functionality of ValuSource Internet (VSI).

  • AmeriNet will seek out strategic partners that provide the best solutions to its existing contract suppliers and will identify those organizations that provide seamless electronic integration opportunities between its members and their trading partners.

  • AmeriNet will facilitate the expansion of its electronic commnication capabilities with its existing contract suppliers through the enhanced capabilities of its Members Only web site.
