Sometimes there are items you only use for a few patients, but others that you need more frequently. You can order medical kits that are pre-packaged with a variety of items, and the send these out with your staff so they always have these on hand, and so they have a variety of the rare things they may need unexpectedly. Talk with the company on affordable pricing for large orders.

Set Up Reoccurring Orders

If you set up to have a company send you medical product kitting routinely, like once every month, they should give you a discount when you sign the contract to use them. Talk with the different companies to see what percentage you can get removed from the cost to purchase the products, so you can help save money and improve your profits.
