Luminetx®, a division of Christie Medical Holdings, Inc. and
recently acquired by Christie Digital Systems USA, Inc., has signed an
exclusive national sales distribution agreement with New Alliance of
Independent Medical Distributors, Inc., DBA Alliance Medical. The
agreement, effective last month, aligns the medical device company with
Alliance Medical, the nation’s largest consortium of specialty medical
sales distribution companies for intravenous devices, with comprehensive
access to the U.S. acute, oncology and home health markets.
“Alliance Medical is very excited to become the exclusive U.S.
distribution partner for the VeinViewer”
“We’re thrilled with the opportunities that lie ahead for Luminetx and
Alliance Medical,” said Chris Schnee, General Manager and Vice
President, Sales and Marketing for Christie Medical Holdings. “This
partnership will expand the VeinViewer’s domestic reach, further
establishing vascular access imaging as an essential part of patient
care in every medical facility.”
Alliance Medical’s sales force is comprised of more than 70 seasoned
representatives around the country, offering a full-range of medical
devices to customers including all 5,200 hospitals across the U.S. and
medical oncology markets. The distribution agreement will further expand
market penetration for Luminetx and allow both companies to provide
customers with a comprehensive vascular access portfolio, including
consumable products and innovative technologies such as VeinViewer.
“Alliance Medical is very excited to become the exclusive U.S.
distribution partner for the VeinViewer,” said Gary Brown, COO of
Alliance Medical. “In conducting research, we found Luminetx to be the
leader in vascular access technology. Together, we plan to provide
superior clinical support, positively impact patient care and reduce the
cost of vascular access in the years to come.”
