Implementing the Health Sector Climate Action Survey Webinar

This webinar will highlight the purpose, audience, and impact of the NAM Health Sector Climate Action Survey and showcase the Action Collaborative on Achieving a Climate Resilient and Sustainable Health Sector (Climate Collaborative)’s progress in advancing its use and strengthening climate reporting across the sector.

Moderator Megan Maltenfort (Cardinal Health) and speakers Cristina Indiveri (Vizient), Kaleb Stargel (Advocate Health), and Ariel Russ (Kaiser Permanente) will discuss how the survey is designed primarily for suppliers to complete and maintain for reference, while also serving as a valuable tool for providers, purchasers, and others who engage with suppliers to obtain climate-related information in a standardized and comparable format. The session will explore the survey’s real-world impact on the health sector, featuring testimonials from Collaborative members who are using the tool and highlighting how it supports the Collaborative’s broader efforts to advance sector-wide progress toward decarbonization.

The Health Sector Climate Action survey was developed by the NAM Climate Collaborative to reduce redundancy in climate-related data requests from the health sector and streamline how suppliers report on sustainability and climate-related efforts.

The survey helps ensure suppliers can efficiently share key information—such as emissions disclosures, reduction goals, and sustainability strategies—with buyers and providers in a consistent format.

Having a standardized tool for the entire health care ecosystem can improve transparency, decrease duplication, and accelerate meaningful climate action. This effort supports a more aligned approach to tracking climate commitments across the health care supply chain.
