WHAT IS MEDICAL LOGISTICS?
Medical logistics is the specialized handling, transport, installation and return of medical equipment, devices and supplies — work that general freight carriers are not equipped to do. It covers a 2,034-pound laboratory analyzer that has to be carried up two flights of stairs because the freight elevator will not take it. It covers the 200 demonstration units a manufacturer’s sales team moves between hospitals every month. It covers decontaminating and recovering equipment at the end of its life. As a medical device 3PL, TechTrans handles all of it under one contract, with one account team.
