Driving Agility for Health Systems

As health systems have grown and expanded outside of the four walls of the hospital, so too have the medical courier operations that support them. Over time, purchasing decisions being made at the department or facility level can lead to bloated, inefficient logistics that doesn’t deliver on agility or quality.

At MedSpeed, we built the toolkit to break through the inefficiency and build something smarter.

We Know Health Systems

We transform transportation networks from cost centers into strategic and transparent assets that can be leveraged for long-term meaningful cost savings, increased efficiencies and standardized utilization.

In 2000, we opened our doors to focus exclusively on healthcare. Those early, formative days inspired us to build the highest quality operations that include employed drivers, proprietary technology, subject matter experts, and standard process. The result: market leadership with exceptional quality and loyal customers.

Our team of experts:

  • understands the intricacies of the healthcare ecosystem
  • has the technical expertise and tools required to support the industry’s efforts to standardize and follow best practices
  • uses our built-to-need technology to provide reliable data and a tailored optimization plan for your network
  • plans for the unexpected, reduces waste, cuts costs, and improves delivery times
  • builds a culture of continuous improvement to create added value over time
