March 3, 2022 – OSSIO, Inc. announced that it has received a contract with Vizient, Inc., making the company’s portfolio of bio-integrative OSSIOfiber® products available at negotiated pricing to health care providers in Vizient’s group purchasing organization (GPO) under a three-year contract starting March 1.
OSSIO’s contract with Vizient covers the entire OSSIOfiber® Intelligent Bone Regeneration Technology portfolio currently commercialized and cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These products include sterile, disposable instrument kits:
- OSSIOfiber® Hammertoe Fixation System – 10-degree and straight implants in 2.5mm, 2.9mm and 3.2mm sizes.
- OSSIOfiber® Trimmable Fixation Nails – Solid-core in 2.4mm and 4.0mm sizes and cannulated in 3.0mm and 4.0mm sizes.
- OSSIOfiber® Compression Screws – Headless, cannulated, partially threaded configurations in 4.0mm diameter and lengths from 26–60mm.
OSSIOfiber® Intelligent Bone Regeneration Technology is a breakthrough in fixation material that provides the first credible solution to the shortcomings of permanent metal hardware, conventional resorbable and allograft implants, and combines unparalleled mechanical strength and natural bone healing in a non-permanent implant. Made from a proprietary natural mineral fiber matrix, its bio-integrative material properties provide surgeons with a more biologically friendly way to restore patient stability and mobility while leaving nothing permanent behind.
Beginning March 1, OSSIOfiber® products are available to all members of Vizient at contracted pricing. Vizient is the largest member-driven health care performance improvement company in the country with a diverse membership and customer base including academic medical centers, pediatric facilities, community hospitals, integrated health delivery networks and non-acute health care providers.
OSSIOfiber® Intelligent Bone Regeneration Technology can address many surgical applications through the manufacturing of endless implant designs, including nails, screws, staples, anchors and plates. The company intends to pursue multiple applications in the distal extremity, trauma, sports, reconstruction, pediatrics and spine segments.
