MED, ROHO Launch Support Surfaces Referral Network

LUBBOCK, Texas; BELLEVILLE, Ill. — The MED Group and The ROHO Group
have partnered on a service that will let clinicians prescribe
ROHO’s therapeutic support surfaces and cushions for their patients
with orders to be filled through MED’s national HME provider
network.

Through centralized dispatch, the ROHO National Referral
Fulfillment Network allows a discharge planner, case manager or
other health care provider to order the company’s products for
patients as they are discharged.

“A discharge planner can work with the local ROHO representative
so that she knows exactly what type of products will work best for
her patients,” said Rhonda Hines, MED’s director of referral
management, in a release. “And, with a dedicated referral network
solution in place, she can be assured that the products she has
chosen are the products that will be placed by a highly qualified,
accredited provider.”

The process will use MED’s Web — enabled GoMEDEdge, which
places referrals with providers in the network.

“The winners will ultimately be the end-use clients, who will
now have more high quality choices to address their seating and
support surfaces needs,” said ROHO’s Tom Borcherding, executive
vice president of global sales.

MED Group has more than 370 providers representing more than
1,200 locations.
