What is your BEST VALUE in Mobile Carts – ASR and Metro

VALUE – “Worth in usefulness or importance to the possessor; utility or merit.”

VALUE ADDED – “A value add can either increase the product’s price or value. For example, offering one year of free support on a new computer would be a value-added feature. Additionally, individuals can bring value add to services that they perform, such as bringing advanced financial modeling skills to a position in which the hiring manager may not have foreseen the need for such skills.”

BEST VALUE – ” Combining Value and Value Added”

As one of Metro’s Leading Value Added Resellers (VAR), ASR encounters many opportunities where one Health System or another will engage us to source Laptop Carts, Documentation Carts, TeleHealth Carts or full blown RX Carts.  After learning about the task of the cart, the daily process for the cart and the technology to be used in it, we will configure the ideal model for them with pricing.  Those who are new to ASR and Metro often say, “we can get a X Cart or Y Cart for less than that.”  That is probably true, but let’s examine what you get for your $$$ and when will you be replacing it.

Best Warranty – The Metro carts have a 5 year warranty and now a 10 year guarantee  on the LiNano Battery through July 31, 2014 (now expired) .  I don’t think any cart competitor can make that statement.

Metro Carts are Better Built – We are currently servicing accounts with hundreds of our carts purchased in 2006 and 2007.  That is 7 or 8 years ago!  The Competitor’s Carts would have been replaced and scrapped long before that.

Best Features – The AccessPoint Computer Carts have 4 adjustments for Ergonomics, are lightweight and have MICROBAN infused into them.  We completely cover Care Giver Safety and Infection Control.

Best ROI – Metro Carts last longer which increases your initial investment.  Mobile Carts are not going away.  Think long term with them.

Best Service – Metro and ASR provide the best service available today.  We help you support your fleet, upgrade the technology in them down the road and simply push way past that mark where other manufacturers cart will be replaced.

Good luck in getting service when your carts are broken or dying.  Their current price is not anywhere near having VALUE.  Your Soft Costs of extra support, battery replacements and repairs will eat your IT budget up in man-hours year after year.  When looking at your next purchase, try using a factor of 1.5 or 2.0 times the price of the Competitor’s Cart against ours.  Then, you will begin to see your ROI with Metro.  Our carts have the lowest Cost of Ownership.  Think long-term and it WILL SAVE YOU $$$.

We understand that budgets are tight.  We will help you stretch your Point of Care device dollar through our VALUE as a VALUE ADDED RESELLER. Partnering with ASR will save you time, money and allow you to better focus on Patient Care.

ASR is a leading Metro Healthcare Mobile Cart Dealer and Service Center.

ASR at HomeTown Health Fall Conference – Show Medical Carts and Medication Cart

ASR just attended the HomeTown Health Fall Conference for their members in Callaway Gardens, Georgia.  The HomeTown Health members consist of small rural Health Systems and Hospitals in Georgia, Alabama and Panhandle Florida.

From their website, their mission:

HomeTown Health, LLC is a network of rural hospitals, healthcare providers, and best practice business partners who collectively pursue ways to help its membership survive in the environment of constant change in reimbursement, operations and technology.

HomeTown Health, LLC is committed to providing legislative representation, best practice solutions and continuing education and training through research and the continuous improvement of processes for healthcare providers.

The HomeTown Health members and Business Partners are lucky to have this organization to identify needs, share knowledge and assist with the business of running a hospital.  The HomeTown Health group were outstanding and pulled out the stops for their members and partners.  We really enjoyed meeting and interfacing with them.

ASR is proud to support HomeTown Health and help make a difference in patient care for rural communities.

They loved the Metro 1770RX Medication Cart and the AccessPoint Medical Cart we had on display.

ASR presented our full line of Mobile Carts, including the new…AccessPoint. We attended many break out sessions to learn more about Mobile Computing, legislative updates for healthcare and insurance changes with ACA.

AccessPoint from Metro – Available Now

Metro announced their new Point of Care line at HIMSS 2013.

Today, I will hit on the high points of the new AccessPoint from Metro.  This leads the pack in Point of Care Mobile Carts.

From the User Perspective:

• 2 Hour Charge – Also has Option for Fanless Charging (for ORs)
• 13 Hour Daily Battery Life
• Same small footprint  – easy to get into tight spaces
• Easy to push
• Rear Handles
• Built-in Foot Rest
• Electronic Lift Adjustment – Push Button
• Left and Right adjustable Mouse Pads
• Fully Articulating Monitor – Left, Right, Face Down, Forward, Up and Down – Standard
• LED Lights – Worksurface and Keyboard – With Dimmers
• Microban Top to Bottom – Infused Antimicrobial
• Backlit Keyboard
• Articulating Keyboard Tray – Left, Right, Up, Down and Adjust Tilt

 

From the IT Perspective:

• LiNano Battery – Comes with 5 Year Warranty and Rated for 5000 Cycles.  That is almost 7 years before replacing batteries! DO NOT COMPARE to other manufacturer’s Lithium Batteries.  Theirs have half the life…2500 Cycles.  We have a Mid-Grade to compete with those, if you like.  But why go Mid-Grade and replace after 3.5 years?
• Easy Access Battery Storage Area – Pop off the Footrest and there it is!
• MetroMonitor Software – Allows IT Dept. to remotely see WOW or COW and its battery health instantly.
• Easy Access Tech Tray – Unlock the Worksurface and remove.  There is the Thin Client, Laptop or Computer.

From the Health System Perspective:

• Best Value – Cost of Ownership is Lowest
• Longest Battery Life Each Day and Rated for 5000+ Cycles
• 5 Year Warranty on Mechanical Parts and LiNano Batteries

This new Point of Care platform is leading the industry in User Efficiency, Data Accuracy, Availibilty and Monitoring.

With Daily Availability of 13 hours, why consider anything else?

Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) with FLO is Lowest in Mobile Computing

The TCO for Flo Mobile Workstations, the Flo 1760 and Flo 1760RX, is the lowest for your Health System. This true for a few reasons:

1. Flo Battery Technology is Superior – They simply outlast all others in daily use duration and overall life of the batteries. (The technology for batteries comes from parent company owning Liebert.)

2. No hidden costs – Flo Mobile Workstations come out of the box Fully Assembled. (nothing to put together or buy…in other words no extra expense and no hidden IT costs for assembly)

3. Flo now has Budget Minded Power Systems – The new Power Systems simply lets you swap batteries for an upgrade later, if your budget today is tight.

Flo Heathcare is a division of Metro, a subsidiary of Emerson Electric Corporation. Everyone has heard of Emerson as they are a Fortune 100 company. They are very well known within the Information Services field with Data Center Power solutions.
See more about Emerson here: http://www.emerson.com/en-US/Pages/Default.aspx

Why wouldn’t you trust them with the BEST BATTERY SOLUTION for COWs or WOWs? If an IT Help Desk virtually eliminates Battery Problems from their FLO WOW fleet, Trouble Tickets will be reduced 60% or more!

The Flo Healthcare Li-Nano Battery Solution is rated for 8000+ cycles…twice that of Rubbermaid cart Li Batteries! That is a 7 1/2 year life using the cart 365 days a year on all 3 shifts. It comes with a 3 year warranty too. This almost eliminates power related problems and removes them from Information Services Support for 5 years or longer. Other manufacturer’s COWs may be less expensive up front but having to replace batteries twice as often clearly makes Flo Healthcare the clear cut winner in TCO with Point of Care carts! You would be replacing batteries with the Rubbermaid COW before the 3 year warranty runs out on the Flo LiNano!

Computer on Wheels (COWs) or Workstation on Wheels (WOWs) Keep Rolling

COWs, as I call them, are essential tools of every health system. The carts from Flo are rock solid, in fact, we are currently upgrading the technology in 5 year old Flo 1750 carts. With a new Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse, Mouse Cradle, Scanner Holder and HP 8200, an old 1750 cart is almost new again. Once our techs clean, sanitize, service and inspect the cart as the final step, IT IS NEW AGAIN.

The nursing staff is pleased, the IT staff is pleased and the ROI on that cart pleases the Health System Administrators.

The newer generation carts, the Flo 1760s should be ready for upgrades now too.

Oh, by adding the Washable keyboards and mice from Seal Shield with built-in Anti-Microbial, this is a benefit toward Infection Control.
