SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Avail Medystems has been awarded a national group purchasing agreement for telehealth/telemedicine with Premier, Inc. Effective January 1, 2023, the new agreement allows Premier members, at their discretion, to take advantage of special pricing and terms pre-negotiated by Premier for placement of Avail's telepresence technology in operating rooms and use of Avail to livestream procedures to providers throughout a facility or across health systems for medical education, training and clinical collaboration.

"Avail is playing a key role as hospitals and health systems look for ways to be more efficient, expand training opportunities for staff, differentiate within their markets, and most importantly provide the best care possible," stated Daniel Hawkins, CEO of Avail. "We are very excited to be working with Premier. Following thorough research into the capabilities of the platform, Premier has determined that Avail can deliver significant value to its members by ensuring the right clinical expertise is in the room when it's needed and that by deploying our technology, their members can be better prepared to harness the power of innovation as digitization of the operating room continues."

Avail's telepresence technology enables physicians and the MedTech industry to be virtually present in operating or procedure rooms. Clinical teams can invite remote healthcare providers and medical device experts to learn, share knowledge, collaborate, or provide product expertise by joining live procedures, both audibly and visually.

The complete system adheres to high security and privacy standards including encrypted communications, HIPAA compliance, and SOC2 Type 2.
