Quality assurance is a vital component of any healthcare manufacturing organization. Product defects in raw materials and finished goods costs time and money and adversely impacts customer satisfaction.

Financial Management​

While making products is vital to a healthcare manufacturing firm, all roads lead to accounting. In many cases, the operation's impact on the organization's financial statements is known at the end of the implementation instead of the beginning.
