This service eliminates shipping costs and prevents delays caused by incorrect addresses or other shipping issues. Items are promptly sent and received, ensuring minimal disruption to patient care and other operations. There are no other known vendors who can offer both an expedited preventive maintenance service contract as well as on-call service.
