Rotech Healthcare is a national leader in providing respiratory and sleep apnea treatment as well as home medical equipment. Guided by a mission to deliver outstanding customer service and the very best in quality patient care, Rotech Healthcare has selected the cloud-based Descartes Route Planner™ On-demand software to automate planning, dispatch and data collection processes for its fleet delivering medical equipment and services to patients across the U.S.

Providing medical equipment and services direct to patients’ homes often involves significant complexity and transportation resources. By automating route planning and scheduling, Rotech Healthcare will be able to increase efficiency and drive down unnecessary logistics costs without sacrificing high quality service for customers. As the current tide of healthcare reform adds more margin pressure to the home medical equipment (HME) industry, Rotech is making key technology investments in its distribution and logistics operations to help support the service standards that customers expect while reducing fleet costs.
