Getinge and Zimmer Biomet today announced a strategic partnership where Zimmer Biomet will distribute Getinge’s Operating Room (OR) capital products to its Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) customers. This partnership creates a turnkey solution for ASC customers, who can now access Getinge’s infection control and surgical portfolio and Zimmer Biomet’s menu of implants and surgical robotics from a single source.
As part of Zimmer Biomet’s ZBX ASC Solutions offering, customers will be able to access Getinge’s infection control and surgical portfolio – surgical equipment, OR integration and lighting – with Zimmer Biomet’s joint replacement implants and technology.
“For us, this partnership represents a significant advancement in our efforts to innovate and expand the boundaries of healthcare. We are thrilled to collaborate with Zimmer Biomet to deliver value to healthcare professionals and patients within the orthopedic ASC sector. This collaboration shows our commitment to making life-saving technology accessible to more people,” said Patricia Fitch, President of North America at Getinge.
“Together with Getinge, we’re expanding our ability to deliver a comprehensive, turnkey solution for our ASC customers – faster and more seamlessly – from a company they know and trust,” said Jehanzeb Noor, Senior Vice President, Chief Strategy, Innovation and Business Development Officer, Zimmer Biomet. “As orthopedic surgeries increasingly migrate from traditional hospital settings to ASCs, the imperative to drive efficiency, enhance patient safety, and improve clinical outcomes has never been greater. By aligning with Getinge, we’re accelerating our ability to support surgeons in advancing these priorities, while shaping the future of orthopedic care.”
The partnership will be implemented in phases, starting in the U.S., with the ambition to eventually offer the combined portfolio of ASC solutions in additional regions around the world.
