Innovation Paradox• The introduction of new products and processes
into health systems has traditionally been perceived as a cost driver, which has prevented the adoption of innovations that can enhance health system performance and decrease overall costs.
• However, the manner in which innovation is procured can prove decisive in turning a burden into a substantial advantage.

Conclusion
•Traditional procurement approaches do not work well to acquire innovative technologies. However, there are a few approaches and strategies that are helping health care organizations to extract greater value from their procurement transactions.
•All of these models are based on closer dialogue, collaboration and trust. These models are contributing to more sustainable health care systems, improved productivity, and enhanced patient outcomes.
