Whole blood, platelets, plasma, red and white blood cells, and bone marrow have a defined shelf life, but their need is often immediate to solve a medical crisis. Hosting a website using OrderMatch™ software can create a database whereby participants can locate rare blood types and access sources of these products. In addition, suppliers of specialized transfusion and blood processing equipment can participate to make their products readily available.
The disparity in regulations controlling the sale and distribution of legal hemp and cannabis products across the United States has caused significant challenges for these startup businesses to get their products to market. Even though there are potential investors, access to customers, arranging shipping and distribution, and authentication of product continue to challenge this industry. The Ordermatch™ software and OrderMatch Universe™ business model provide a marketplace where customers can locate products to buy, and sellers can determine regulations for various shipping locations. Authentication can be added to the operation and administration is handled by the software for cost effective operation.
In the healthcare industry, both specialized and commodity equipment and supplies can experience periods of shortages. In addition, oversupply may occur at individual facilities.
