MUSC to consolidate sterilization, supply chain processes under 1 roof

The Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston will consolidate its sterilization and supply chain department into a single facility, reports The Post and Courier.

Four things to know:

1. MUSC is working with a private developer on the 106,500-square-foot facility, which will cost $28 million to build.

2. The building will serve as a consolidated service center for all of MUSC's facilities in the tri-county area, saving the system an expected $14 million in annual operating costs.

3. The facility will also serve as a sterilization center for all of MUSC's medical equipment.

4. The building is slated for completion in the second half of 2019.
