Sunset Healthcare Solutions

What Sunset Healthcare Solutions does

Sunset Healthcare Solutions is a privately held, Chicago-headquartered wholesale distributor and OEM manufacturer of respiratory medical supplies serving the U.S. home medical equipment (HME), acute care/hospital, fire/EMS, and international markets. The company was founded in 2004 and operates from three facilities—a downtown Chicago headquarters, a central distribution center in Bloomingdale, Illinois, and a western distribution center in Phoenix, Arizona—with a direct, segment-specialized sales force of 11–50 employees covering HME, acute care, fire departments, national accounts, and international customers.

The product portfolio spans the respiratory workflow across more than 1,000 SKUs, organized into CPAP/BiPAP (masks, tubing, headgear, filters, batteries, machines), oxygen therapy (concentrators, cannulas, masks, filters, pulse oximeters), ventilation (circuits, non-invasive ventilation accessories, cough assist), medication delivery (compressor and mesh nebulizers), tracheostomy and suction supplies, anesthesia and laryngeal masks, and cleaning/disinfection products. Proprietary or exclusively distributed products include the Lynx Venturi Mask, which delivers precise FiO2 with less than 2% variance and consolidates multiple oxygen delivery adapters into a single device, and the LUISA HFT Ventilator (manufactured by Movair/Löwenstein Medical), an award-winning portable home ventilator with integrated High Flow Oxygen Therapy. The company also offers OEM manufacturing and customized packaging services.

Revenue is generated primarily through wholesale hardware sales of medical devices and consumable resupply products to B2B customers under a quote-based pricing model with pay-as-you-go billing. GTM is sales-led and event-driven, combining regional direct sales representatives, industry trade shows (Medtrade West, Medtrade Atlanta, HME News Business Summit), channel partnerships with VGM Fulfillment, PPM Fulfillment, and Sanrai International, and a website-enabled online ordering and Pay Online portal for SMB and consumer buyers. The company is led by President Christopher Slosar and has been recognized eight times on the Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Companies list.
