What American International Medical does

American International Medical (operating as AimCardio) is a privately-held US medical equipment reseller specializing in the refurbishment, resale, parts distribution, and repair of pre-owned cardiac diagnostic equipment. The company was established in 1994 (per company history; the website header references "Since 1993") and operates from a single facility in the Sylmar / Los Angeles area. Its core competency is taking used stress test systems, EKG/ECG machines, ultrasound systems, and medical treadmills and professionally refurbishing, testing, and warrantying them for resale as patient-ready units.

The company's product portfolio spans major refurbished systems (listed at $5,790-$18,990), parts and accessories (batteries, patient cables, walking belts, recording paper, transducers), and full repair/depot services including component-level certified repair. It distributes multi-brand OEM equipment — GE/Marquette, Quinton, Philips, Burdick, Mortara, Nasiff, Cardiac Science, and Trackmaster — alongside consumables and replacement parts. Underlying equipment integrations supported include DICOM, HL7, PACS, EMR/EHR export, and GE MUSE connectivity, though these are features of the OEM hardware rather than proprietary to the reseller.

Revenue is generated through a direct-to-buyer motion combining an e-commerce storefront (aimcardio.com), phone/WhatsApp sales, and a quote-based process for higher-ticket equipment, supplemented by financing partnerships for larger purchases. Primary customer segments are cardiology clinics and practices, hospital cardiology departments, private medical practices, and (to a lesser extent) diagnostic imaging centers — a cost-sensitive long tail of healthcare providers. The company markets itself on a 30-year track record, up to 60% cost savings versus new OEM pricing, nationwide plus selective international shipping, and free technical support. No venture capital, private equity, parent company, or subsidiary affiliations are disclosed.
