Invaluable Supply Chain Expertise

Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASCs) are a rapidly growing sector in the health care marketplace, with different needs, challenges and levels of in-house expertise typically available in a large hospital.

Owens & Minor has targeted distribution and logistics solutions and tools that are ideal for ASCs, no matter how experienced their supply chain personnel. Our analytics tools are highly flexible and work seamlessly with existing systems to improve and streamline supply operations. 

As with our hospital customers, Owens & Minor offer ASCs the widest range of branded product choice—more than 180,000 items from 1,200 suppliers—for frequent-use items as well as higher-dollar supplies for your OR and clinical specialty areas. Our experts can walk you through the options that make the most sense for your practice and can teach you how to maximize every dollar spent on medical-surgical supplies.

In the lower-volume, more personalized ASC health care model, it is not always economically practical to employ dedicated in-house supply chain personnel to manage the complexities of ordering, maintaining inventory and storing vital supplies. That burden often falls to those whose skills would be better directed in other critical areas, such as focusing on quality patient care. Owens & Minor can be your partner in that effort, with a wide menu of services and tools that fit your needs.
