Vitamin D is found in many dietary sources such as fish eggs fortified milk and cod liver oil. The sun also contributes significantly to the daily production of vitamin D and as little as 10 minutes of exposure is thought to be enough to prevent deficiencies. The term "vitamin D" refers to several different forms of this vitamin. Two forms are important in humans: ergocalciferol (vitamin D2) and cholecalciferol (vitamin D3). Vitamin D2 is synthesized by plants. Vitamin D3 is synthesized by humans in the skin when it is exposed to ultraviolet-B (UVB) rays from sunlight. Foods may be fortified with vitamin D2 or D3. The major biologic function of vitamin D is to maintain normal blood levels of calcium and phosphorus. Vitamin D aids in the absorption of calcium helping to form and maintain strong bones. Recently research also suggests vitamin D may provide protection from osteoporosis hypertension (high blood pressure) cancer and several autoimmune diseases. Rickets and osteomalacia are classic vitamin D deficiency diseases. In children vitamin D deficiency causes rickets which results in skeletal deformities. In adults vitamin D deficiency can lead to osteomalacia which results in muscular weakness in addition to weak bones. Populations who may be at a high risk for vitamin D deficiencies include the elderly obese individuals exclusively breastfed infants and those who have limited sun exposure. Also individuals who have fat malabsorption syndromes (e.g. cystic fibrosis) or inflammatory bowel disease (e.g. Crohn's disease) are at risk.

Industry News : Marquette General Health System joins Premier healthcare alliance. Marquette General Health System of Marquette, Mich., has joined the Premier healthcare alliance, consisting of more than 2,500 hospitals and 76,000 other healthcare sites, to improve care delivery.
“We believe this new partnership will help improve the value of the health services Marquette provides to our community and look forward to furthering our work with Premier.”
As a Premier owner, Marquette leverages a national purchasing network delivering industry-leading contract pricing. The not-for-profit health system formerly utilized MedAssets as its national purchasing organization.
Marquette also collaborates and compares performance with other members of the alliance to improve care efficiency while safely reducing waste and costs using the nation's largest clinical, financial and operational database.
"Premier's business model is unique in that it is completely owned by its members and thus accountable to and fully aligned with their goals," said Gary Muller, president & CEO at Marquette. "We believe this new partnership will help improve the value of the health services Marquette provides to our community and look forward to furthering our work with Premier."
The health system participates in two Premier collaboratives for additional performance improvement opportunities.
As a new member of Premier's ASCEND® (Accelerated Supply Chain Endeavor) program, Marquette aggregates, monitors and analyzes supply chain data to identify improvement opportunities. This includes simplified and consistent purchasing processes, appropriate clinical utilization and specially negotiated contracts. Members of ASCEND have saved $56 million over two years, without sacrificing the quality of care.
To support its purchasing decisions, the health system uses Premier supply chain tools like SpendAdvisor® MySpend™, to easily examine spend data.
