ABOUT US
Access Medical is a leader in mobility equipment. Our major focus is to take a clinical approach in providing for our patients and meeting their mobility needs. This approach begins with the initial intake, when a patient is referred to work with our practice.
By understanding whether or not an individual can receive, how, when, and confirming the payer of the equipment. Confirming the process with the insurance from the beginning to make the process as quick and efficient as possible. Once we know which process we follow, we have the ability to scream down the track to get it done.
Quality With Every Step
From start to finish, Access Medical considers quality to be of utmost importance. From the very first interaction with clients and healthcare professionals, to the delivery and repair of equipment, we consider it an honor to do what we do.
Access Medical is JCHO accredited and as a company, we diligently work to provide outstanding customer care while delivering a fully customized approach for each of our clients.
OUR STORY
Access Medical is a wonderful story of American entrepreneurship. With a lot of hard work and a little bit of luck we have grown this organization to become a vital asset to the disabled community in Southern California.
Before It Began
In January of 2006 Blaine Hunt, President & CEO, was pursuing an undergraduate degree in a Rehab Science major at Brigham Young University. He was pursuing this path in preparation for medical school when something important happened. His sister started introducing him to her disabled friends. At birth, his sister could not breathe and suffered the effects of ataxia. She also suffered from joint deformities and significant eversion of her ankles. From a young age, his sister had an abnormal gate and was destined to need mobility equipment devices in her life. Many of her friends could not walk and were wheelchair bound for a variety of reasons. Her love for her friends and her understanding of their needs, as well as her own, inspired Blaine.
As he got to know his sister’s friends it became apparent to him that the medical devices supplied were not meeting their medical necessities. As he observed the companies providing the products, something stood out. The companies hired employees who were not medical professionals. They did not have an education or a background to prepare them for providing custom and complex medical devices. The companies they worked for were not accredited and their goal was to sell products to whomever they could. The suppliers sold products offering a solution but oftentimes, because of their lack of training and understanding of a patient's medical necessity, the suppliers would create more problems than solutions.
To Blaine, this was wrong and at his young age he had no political power to change the laws regarding who could provide medical equipment. So he did the next best thing.
