A.Algeo Ltd Leads Cost Savings in the NHS
The government has released figures recently which state that the Northwest NHS has recorded a surplus of £230m in expenditures. Costs saved on treatment have been considered a contributor, and A.Algeo Ltd are at the forefront for delivering affordable innovative products to the NHS.
(PRWEB) March 21, 2008 -- A. Algeo Ltd are adding to the Northwest's NHS cost savings by delivering affordable innovative products which reduce patient waiting times while providing complete patient care.
The government released figures recently which stated that the Northwest Health service is due to record a £230m surplus in its expenditures. It has been suggested that a number of factors have contributed to the savings made by the NHS in the past year. Costs saved on treatment have been highlighted as a key contributor to the NHS savings.
A. Algeo Ltd is the recognised leading supplier to the podiatry, orthotic, prosthetics sectors, and the largest distributor of materials and components to the NHS Northwest. Due to the pioneering range of products on offer, A. Algeo Ltd has secured itself as the supplier of low-cost, efficient products providing convenience for the practitioner and a trusted service to the patient.
The Slimflex and Podotech orthotic product ranges supplied to the NHS by A. Algeo Ltd have been received with great success by podiatrists. The ranges feature prefabricated foot orthotics, eliminating the need for custom foot orthotics. The Slimflex and Podotech products can be interchanged to construct an orthotic to suit individual patient requirements. This removes the time spent by technicians to manufacture custom made foot orthotics.
The procedure of building custom made orthotics can take weeks in manufacturing as a cast is made of the foot, which then becomes a plaster cast, with the plaster then forming the orthotic. The convenience of prefabricated foot orthotics allows practitioners to manage their time more effectively. The time spent previously building orthotics, can now be spent seeing additional patients. This saves the NHS time and labour costs in terms of expenditure.
George Jones, MD of A .Algeo Ltd believes that the company provides a key service to NHS for podiatry and orthotic clinics : "Over the period of 20 years, we have constantly researched for and developed the entire Slimflex and Podotech product ranges so that they have become the NHS standard method of lowest cost possible treatment while ensuring they provide the highest quality of patient care."
