InfuSystem Holdings, a leading national health care service provider, facilitating outpatient care for durable medical equipment manufacturers and health care providers, announced today a three-year distribution agreement with Smith+Nephew for its innovative negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) system and supplies.
Under this agreement, InfuSystem will offer Smith+Nephew’s advanced RENASYS◊ EDGE negative pressure wound therapy system, an exciting new option in home-based care for patients living with chronic wounds. The RENASYS EDGE system is lightweight and compact allowing it to be easily carried or worn, featuring a discreet canister and operates quietly to not draw attention or disturb the patients’ daily activities.
Richard DiIorio, Chief Executive Officer of InfuSystem, said, “Based on our more than 800 in-network health insurance providers covering over 96% of the U.S. population and our well-established and trusted service capabilities, Smith+Nephew approached InfuSystem to assist them as a secondary distribution partner for their RENASYS EDGE system. We are excited about this new partnership, that will leverage InfuSystem’s unique Patient Services platform to deliver customized solutions. InfuSystem’s ability to wrap its high-value services around our partners’ products will quickly benefit and attract new revenue opportunities for both companies and more importantly giving more patients increased access to the new RENASYS EDGE technology.”
