Express Courier Systems, Inc. Launches New Division for Healthcare Companies

To better serve the time- sensitive transportation needs of healthcare companies and laboratories, Express Courier Systems Inc., today announced the formation of Medifleet. A standalone division of the company, Medifleet’s business is fully focused on healthcare organizations, providing them with a broad range of customized delivery solutions to meet their specialized needs. Medifleet offers same day pick-up and delivery service in many different markets across the country. Moreover, each member of Medifleet’s courier team has comprehensive training in ambient, cooled and frozen diagnostic specimen handling, and is OSHA, HIPAA and DOT compliant.

Medifleet also features a unique Dedicated Courier Program to provide its healthcare customers with added assurance in the professionalism of the courier servicing their business. Unlike other courier services that rotate drivers, Medifleet customers will have the same courier and dispatchers assigned to their business every day. This ensures the Medifleet team is fully familiar with the client’s location, staff, delivery routes, pick-up windows and any special requirements.

Medifleet initially began operations on January 1, 2007, serving major hospitals, laboratories, veterinary clinics and healthcare facilities. “Express Courier has more than ten years of experience in providing courier services to the healthcare industry. Given this, Medifleet is an idea of ours whose time has come,” said Brian P. McArdle, President of Express Courier Systems. “We recognize that healthcare companies have transportation needs unlike any other industry – due primarily to the time-critical nature of patient care.” McArdle adds, “Medifleet enables us to deliver the right people, the right resources, and the right solutions to our healthcare clients through a customized, cost-effective approach.”
