PODCAST: Health insurance: A spend category presenting ideal opportunities for procurement to create value for the business

Despite the fact that it isn’t frequently discussed as a spend category, health insurance represents an ideal opportunity for procurement to create value for the business.

It is a large category in terms of spend, involves a lot of nuances and complexity, and it has been the exclusive domain of Human Resources – until now.

​​This episode of the Art of Procurement Podcast is based on a recent category briefing held within the AOP Mastermind community.
