WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.,
April 18, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
SurgLine International, Inc. (SGLN.PK)
Thomas Toland, CEO of SGLN and
SurgLine, Inc. ("SurgLine") reported that the company has
successfully completed its first sports medicine related surgical
case to a physician owned surgery center in the state of
Indiana. The case involved
specialized plates and screws and provided a substantial savings
over the competition.
Toland was quoted as saying "We been working diligently with
this cost containment consulting firm for more than 8 months on
multiple projects around the U.S. and that this first case
demonstrates our value proposition of "More Savings for Your
Healthcare Dollar." We have been working side-by-side with the
senior management team of this consulting firm to deliver proven
savings in the operating room since last fall and we can now report
success with our first of many cases. We are awaiting responses
from others facilities as we speak."
Toland was further quoted as saying, "The sales cycle has been
somewhat longer than what we initially anticipated. We must
patiently understand that while we are setting the traditional
medical supply chain process on its head by providing such high
quality products and significant savings to these facilities that
in many cases these same facilities may require layers of approval
to occur in order to achieve our initial sales approval and
resulting orders from these facilities."
Toland concluded, "In addition to the sports medicine surgical
case referenced above, we have provided additional detailed pricing
quotes on our spinal implant products to several acute care
hospitals and physician owned surgery centers around the U.S. in
conjunction with this cost containment consulting firm. We
anticipate many more opportunities to provide quotations resulting
in savings that can range from 25% to 40% or more depending upon
the location and situation and implant selected."
