San Fernando, CA (September 15, 2010) – Precision Dynamics Corporation (PDC), the global leader in healthcare identification solutions, has been awarded a 3-year contract extension from Amerinet for patient wristbands, allowing Amerinet customers to lock in significant potential savings. Amerinet is a leading national healthcare group purchasing organization with more than 2,500 acute care hospitals and 25,000 alternate care members in its network of healthcare providers.

The Contract VH2100 for wristbands is active through October 31, 2013. It provides Amerinet clients with access to Precision Dynamics’ leading line of ID solutions for accurate, reliable, and easy-to-use positive patient identification throughout the continuum of care, helping to prevent errors and improve clinical outcomes.

The agreement will help Amerinet clients continue to enhance their operating margins and cash flow. New cost savings include a committed Tier that will pass on a minimum savings of 10% off the standard Amerinet contract for those members who meet the requirements of Precision Dynamics’ PowerPlusTM Purchasing Program.

"As a partner with Amerinet for over 10 years, Precision Dynamics shares Amerinet’s goal of providing high quality care through positive ID solutions, while reducing costs and streamlining operations in healthcare,” said Gary Hutchinson, President and CEO of Precision Dynamics. “We look forward to our continued collaboration to provide positive ID and positive outcomes.”

Precision Dynamics was awarded the wristband contract as part of Amerinet’s intensive contract selection process, which focuses on delivering high quality, cost-effective solutions to the healthcare industry. Precision Dynamics is also under contract with Amerinet for its labeling solutions (contract VH05600).
