Steindler Orthopedics selects Medline as Prime Vendor
Strategic partnership aims to enhance operational efficiency and support high-quality orthopedic care
NORTHFIELD, Ill., Sept. 16, 2025 -- Medline announced today that it signed a Prime Vendor agreement with Steindler Orthopedics' Steindler Surgery Center, a new six-operating-room orthopedic facility based in North Liberty, Iowa, in March 2025.
As part of the agreement, Steindler Surgery Center will have access to Medline's comprehensive portfolio of medical-surgical supplies and advanced analytics tools to support the center in monitoring item use, contract compliance, pricing accuracy and spend across product categories.
"As we prepared for the center to open, we worked with Medline on initial product selection and leveraged design services to develop storage layouts and optimize space utilization," said Kathy Hotz, director of surgery center operations. "Partnering with Medline provided the strategic support we needed to identify the right products and streamline our opening process."
Hotz added: "Medline's pack program has helped improve our efficiency in the O.R. From welcome kits to orthopedic, anesthesia and turnover kits, having everything pre-assembled saves us valuable time and helps support consistency in patient care."
