Healthcare Supply Chain Week

October 3rd-8th, 2022 is Healthcare Supply Chain Week. This time is an opportunity to recognize individuals and businesses in the critical field of healthcare supplies. Healthcare supply chain professionals are one of the groups that most support the work of healthcare providers, enabling them to make life-saving decisions and improve patients’ lives through technological intervention. 

Befour is a national healthcare supply provider, and we pride ourselves on our high-quality products that improve healthcare and the work of healthcare providers every day. We are committed to not only the end quality of our products but also domestic manufacturing and easy implementation. 

Befour’s Medical Scales Are The Highest Quality

Befour strives to produce the highest quality medical scales and equipment. As such, we run an FDA-approved facility, and all our scales are subject to a thorough ISO 13485 quality inspection and testing. This quality inspection is required for the proper regulation of medical devices. Essentially, it ensures that medical device organizations are consistently meeting both regulatory and customer requirements. 

In addition to meeting these high standards, our medical equipment is made to be long-lasting and requires low maintenance costs. While you can expect the average medical scale to last about 3-5 years, Befour’s scales can function for 20! And superior battery life is just one of the features of Befour medical scales that contributes to their long, low-maintenance lifespans. 

Our enhanced quality is also due in part to the domestic production of our scales, which allows us more control over materials and product lead times. We are able to oversee what is happening during production as it occurs right here in our product facilities. 

We Rely On Domestic Manufacturing

All Befour scales are made in the United States. This factor is important to us for a number of reasons. First, it means we are not dependent on overseas materials and supplies. In addition to allowing us to more closely oversee production and cut down on product lead times so they can get to hospitals and medical settings more quickly, domestic manufacturing also means cost savings. 

Freedom from the international supply chain means freedom from fluctuating tariffs and excessive shipping and transportation costs. Saving on those costs translates into savings for hospitals and other providers, which in turn can translate into savings for patients. 

Ease Of Ordering & Use

Designing and producing healthcare products that are easy to use is one of our priorities. Improved ease of use can have a significant impact in the healthcare setting. 

We bring ease and clarity to every step of the equipment purchasing and employment process. We start with a simple part number scheme, making it easy to find what you require. Part of this simplicity is due to how many advanced features come standard with our medical scales, including MotionLock Technology, active handrails, and KG Lock Out. Having these features come standard eliminates the need for specialized part numbers when you order.    

Additionally, our product line covers all major weighing needs for a hospital setting. This coverage cuts down on overwhelming or confusing options and considerations for you as the end user. Instead, you can simply order a scale and know that it will be ready to use and fulfill your daily needs. This simplicity also lends itself to less time spent on training medical staff to use the devices. With straightforward operations and functionality, we allow medical professionals to spend more time with patients and less time on redundant technological training.
