Global Benchmarking
We continually benchmark our performance against competitors and in-house HTM teams in the United States, as well as in other countries. This process allows us to learn how to continually improve our performance to ensure regulatory compliance, enhance patient safety and improve equipment reliability and availability, while considering financial outcomes, productivity, staff development and retention and customer satisfaction.
Innovation in HTM Compliance
We are constantly working with the U.S. Congress and state legislatures, as well as federal agencies like the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and Food and Drug Administration advocating for healthcare delivery organizations to be able to freely choose their preferred service providers, also know as the Right to Repair, considering the response time and quality and costs of those services, so they can continue to focus on providing the best care for their patients.
