Challenge
Methodist Health System, a Dallas-based healthcare network with a dozen hospitals and more than 10,000 employees, was struggling with an outdated print model. A single internal print shop served the entire organization’s needs but staffing challenges and aging production equipment limited its capabilities. Meanwhile, the lack of a modern print management platform obscured spending patterns and prevented Methodist from focusing more resources on higher-value operations and, ultimately, patient care.

Taylor Healthcare’s comprehensive print center outsourcing solution enabled Methodist Health System to focus more resources on patient care.
