When thinking of technology
in the seating and wheeled mobility
or Durable Medical Equipment (DME)
industries, the examples that first
come to mind might include power
wheelchair systems using fiber-optics
or eye-gaze technology, or smart
systems that help wheelchair users with
pressure-relief regimens.
But how about using technology
to improve business efficiencies for
Complex Rehab Technology (CRT) and
DME suppliers, which in turn benefits
all stakeholders, from consumers
and caregivers, to clinicians, funding
sources, and referral sources?
Bill Paul, CEO of ATLAS Enterprise
Solutions has a belief about that:
“Running a CRT business doesn’t have
to be as hard as you think.” In this
Mobility Management Viewpoint, he and
ATLAS Chief Innovation Officer Diana
Escalera explain how ATLAS systems
were built from within — since Paul
and his family have both owned and
operated CRT and DME businesses.
Escalera refers to ATLAS Enterprise
Software as “battle born” — created,
developed, and fine-tuned by suppliers
for suppliers.
