Medical Waste Disposal Kansas City, KS

One of the support industries that doesn’t get a lot of attention, but is critical to the team is medical waste disposal. Medical waste is a by-product of almost every medical facility, and because of its potential to carry infection it has the potential to be dangerous.

Medical waste is also called biomedical waste and infectious waste and may be solid or liquid. Examples of infectious waste include discarded blood, sharps, unwanted microbiological cultures and stocks, other human or animal tissue, used bandages and dressings, discarded gloves, other medical supplies that may have been in contact with blood and body fluids.

The Kansas Department of Health and Environment oversees medical waste collection, transportation, and disposal of all hazardous waste, and there are definitions, policies, and other important facts and information at their website.

MedPro Waste Disposal operates in 44 states including Kansas. We have earned an excellent reputation based on our track record of reliable service and competitive prices, as well as an safety record. MedPro has grown rapidly since our start in 2009, mainly due to our philosophy of listening to customers.

MedPro has created several unique benefits and services bundled together that we call the MedPro Advantage:

Online Safety Compliance Portal: Safety compliance is not only good, common sense – it’s the law. Customers have asked us to help them put all the components of safety plans, certifications, training, and regulations into one place and make them easy to access. We did it with a portal that wraps everything into a single log-in – OSHA, HIPPA, HazCom, safety plans, emergency preparedness, audits, it’s all in there. We also included all the local, state, and national regulations as well as a conversion tool for those going through the ICD9 to ICD10 transition. Customers say that it saves them time and money, and many have said they can’t imagine being without it.

Right-Sized Service Plans: Every MedPro customer receives a customized service plan based on their output and other specific requirements they convey to us. We will never charge a customer for services they don’t need. We respect the fact that everyone in the medical industry is experiencing tight budgets. We are part of the team.

Invoicing: Medical Professionals in Kansas City have asked us to keep our price plans and invoicing uncomplicated, and we have responded. Every MedPro customer receives a one-flat-fee service plan, and that one-flat-fee is reflected on the invoice. No hidden costs or surcharges will ever pop up and surprise our customers.

Dedicated Customer Advocate: We created this position to separate from the customer service departments that force people to wait on hold, push buttons, and talk to robots. MedPro customers call our offices and ask for their dedicated advocate by name. This arrangement allows prompt, personal attention to every question or concern and lets our customers focus on treating patients.

Support Material: MedPro listened to our customers when they asked for printed material related to safe handling of medical waste, especially sharps. We are happy to provide posters to our customers reminding personnel of safety tips. What goes in the red bag, and what doesn’t? We have material to remind the staff of this information which can save money.

Mailback Programs: MedPro knows that doctors would like to have mail-back programs available as well as old prescription disposal capabilities. Patients should be discouraged from flushing drugs down the drain. MedPro can dispose of these items properly.
