Our priorities
Vizient has a responsibility to model leading environmental, social and governance practices within our own organization. But we have an even greater opportunity to leverage our unique market position to motivate the entire healthcare sector toward greater sustainability, equity and transparency.
In order to move our healthcare system into the future and ensure it serves all of us, Vizient is focusing our energy and effort across the following areas:
People
Healthcare is about people. Everyone—no matter who you are or where you live—deserves the same opportunity to live a whole and healthy life.
Vizient’s responsibility
- Promote health
- Drive engagement
Places
Where we live matters. It determines our ability to thrive—to access food, care, education, jobs and clean air. And it determines our ability to survive—to weather acute natural disasters and navigate chronic disruption.
Vizient’s responsibility
- Invest in communities
- Improve resilience
Planet
Our health depends on the health of the planet. From toxic chemicals in drinking water to lethal rising temperatures, the environment shapes health outcomes. But as a sector, we can make healthier choices.
Vizient’s responsibility
- Empower decarbonization
- Protect resources
