Our story
In 2017, Ford Medical was founded by investors who own and operate LTC facilities across the US — and noticed something disturbing. For providers to operate in the black, they need to keep a watchful eye on costs & expenses and source products with discretion within an often-tight budget. But that shouldn’t place premium supplies out of their reach.
So we took
our facilities and
made a gamble
If we present a united front, tighten oversight & efficiency and build dramatic order volume, we can purchase directly from manufacturers and make transformative top-label products accessible to our residents. We can elevate care for everyone.
We did. Word got out. We grew faster than
we expected —
helping top-tier manufacturers successfully penetrate exclusive markets
enabling a rapidly-growing circle of providers to access premium products
partnering great people with great products, and sustainable margins
Meanwhile, we kept a close ear to the ground and innovated relentlessly:
Rigorous oversight systems to prevent unnecessary purchases or errors
It happens too often, even in the tightest ships
Versatile fulfillment capabilities powering the highest level of flexibility
Such as customized multi-product kits and same-day delivery on a range of products
Deep, constant collaboration with everybody to grow sales & margins
Bringing manufacturers and providers together to surmount challenges and fuel growth
Ford Medical today continues to operate as an exclusive supplier for our inner circle of affiliated facilities.
But we’ve expanded far beyond that —to dozens of provider chains in the hard-to-penetrate post-acute sector. And we’ve only just begun.
Ford Medical by the numbers:
lives elevated each year (and counting) with premium products delivered accurately, safely and on time.
