INDIANAPOLIS (Oct. 6, 2008) - TriMedx was ranked the number one healthcare equipment management company according to a study released today by Modern Healthcare. Based on healthcare provider contracts active in 2007, the comprehensive industry survey analyzed various organizations providing on-site management to hospitals and healthcare facilities.

"TriMedx has done an excellent job meeting our equipment needs," said TriMedx customer, Dick Shelton, sr. administrative director of facilities management, Cardinal Health Services. "In fact, TriMedx played an integral role in consulting with us to purchase patient equipment for our new building at Ball Memorial Hospital."

TriMedx was listed as the country's largest provider of clinical/diagnostic equipment maintenance, and ranked eleventh in size for all types of on-site services management. From 2006 to 2007, TriMedx realized a 4.5 percent increase from the prior year in its customer base.
