Hospital PMI® at 58.6%; August 2024 Hospital ISM® Report On Business®

Published

on

TEMPE, Ariz., Sept. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Economic activity in the hospital subsector grew in August for the 12th consecutive month after contracting twice in the previous four-month period, with 35 consecutive months of growth prior to that, say the nation’s hospital supply executives in the latest Hospital ISM® Report On Business®.

The report was issued today by Nancy LeMaster, MBA, Chair of the Institute for Supply Management® (ISM®) Hospital Business Survey Committee: “The Hospital PMI® registered 58.6 percent in August, a 5.3-percentage point increase from the July reading of 53.3 percent, indicating a 12th consecutive month of growth after a contraction in August 2023. The Business Activity Index expanded for the 12th consecutive month. The New Orders Index expanded in August after an ‘unchanged’ reading the previous month, and the Employment Index remained in expansion territory for the fourth straight month. The Supplier Deliveries Index remained in expansion (which indicates slower delivery performance) for the 12th consecutive month. The Case Mix Index expanded in August, registering 52.5 percent, 0.5 percentage point lower than the previous month’s figure of 53 percent. The Days Payable Outstanding Index was ‘unchanged’ in August, registering 50 percent, down 1.5 percentage points from the July reading of 51.5 percent. The Technology Spend Index reading of 57 percent is an increase of 2.5 percentage points compared to the 54.5 percent recorded in July. The Touchless Orders Index returned to expansion territory in August, registering 53.5 percent, up 5 percentage points from the 48.5 percent reported in July.”

LeMaster continues, “Panelists commented on volumes exceeding historical August levels. Most indicated the volume was driven by a resurgence in COVID-19 cases, while a few mentioned increased elective surgical volumes. Hospitals were successful in increasing staffing levels to keep pace with the volumes. Overall, supplier delivery performance continued to improve, with limited shortages and back orders. Pricing pressure continued to have a negative effect on margins. One panelist indicated the facility was fully recovered from the Change Healthcare cyberattack, while another indicated the organization was shifting more focus and resources on cybersecurity.”

About This Report
The information compiled in this report is for the month of August 2024.

The Hospital PMI® was developed in collaboration with the Association for Health Care Resource & Materials Management (AHRMM), an association for the health care supply chain profession, and a professional membership group of the American Hospital Association (AHA).

The data presented herein is obtained from a survey of hospital supply executives based on information they have collected within their respective organizations. ISM® makes no representation, other than that stated within this release, regarding the individual company data collection procedures. The data should be compared to all other economic data sources when used in decision-making.

Data and Method of Presentation
The Hospital ISM® Report On Business® is based on data compiled from hospital purchasing and supply executives nationwide. Survey responses reflect the change, if any, in the current month compared to the previous month. For each of the indicators measured (Business Activity, New Orders, Employment, Supplier Deliveries, Inventories, Prices, Prices: Pharmaceuticals, Prices: Supplies, Backlog of Orders, Imports, Inventory Sentiment, Case Mix, Days Payable Outstanding, Technology Spend, and Touchless Orders), this report shows the percentage reporting each response and the diffusion index. Responses represent raw data and are never changed. Beginning in January 2021, the Report On Business® staff and consultants are gathering market information to better validate the Exports Index. Exports Index data are still being collected.

The Hospital PMI® is a composite index computed from the following, equally weighted indexes: Business Activity, New Orders, Employment and Supplier Deliveries. Diffusion indexes have the properties of leading indicators and are convenient summary measures showing the prevailing direction of change and the scope of change. A Hospital PMI® index reading above 50 percent indicates that the hospital sub-sector is generally expanding; below 50 percent indicates that it is generally declining. For the sub-indexes, except Supplier Deliveries, an index reading above 50 percent indicates that the sub-index is generally expanding; below 50 percent indicates that it is generally contracting. A Supplier Deliveries Index above 50 percent indicates slower deliveries and below 50 percent indicates faster deliveries.

The Hospital ISM® Report On Business® survey is sent out to the Hospital Business Survey Committee respondents the first part of each month. Respondents are asked to ONLY report on U.S. operations for the current month. ISM® receives survey responses throughout most of any given month, with the majority of respondents generally waiting until late in the month to submit responses to give the most accurate picture of current business activity. ISM® then compiles the report for release on the fifth business day of the following month.
