Respitech Medical

What Respitech Medical does

Respitech Medical Inc. is a privately held, family-owned medical equipment supplier and respiratory care services company headquartered in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Founded in 1988, the company operates three integrated service divisions: Respiratory Services (supplemental and travel respiratory therapist staffing, equipment rentals, oxygen products, and industrial respirator fit testing), Pulmonary Testing (sales of diagnostic equipment from manufacturers including Vitalograph, Morgan Scientific, KoKo, Nonin, Wright Respirometers, and Thorasys, plus biomedical service, PM agreements, and PFT syringe recertification), and For Patients (operating as Respitech CPAP Services, an HQAA-accredited DME providing CPAP/BiPAP equipment and recurring supplies, with home sleep testing delivered through partner Sleep Disorder Associates, an AASM-accredited facility using ResMed ApneaLink). Revenue is generated across five streams: hardware sales and rentals, professional services for respiratory staffing (available in all 50 states), subscription/recurring CPAP supplies billed through insurance, managed biomedical service contracts, and per-subject industrial workforce testing fees.

The company serves a diversified mix of customers, including more than 25 named hospital accounts concentrated in the Mid-Atlantic (Johns Hopkins, GBMC, Sinai, Mercy, Bon Secours, multiple VA Medical Centers), skilled nursing facilities (Future Care, Lorien), physician pulmonary practices, industrial employers requiring OSHA-compliant fit testing, and individual sleep apnea patients reached through physician referral and major insurance networks. Go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, supported by direct phone outreach, a website with educational and screening content (including an Epworth Sleepiness Scale assessment), Google Reviews, and physician referrals. Authorized distribution and service partnerships with major respiratory OEMs (ResMed, Philips Respironics, Fisher & Paykel, DeVilbiss, Vitalograph, KoKo, Morgan, Collins/nSpire, Nonin, Vortran, Thorasys, Ataia Medical) underpin the equipment and service portfolio.

The business model combines transactional hardware sales, recurring revenue from CPAP supply replenishment and biomedical service contracts, and variable-margin professional services for staffing. Pricing is predominantly quote-based, with the only publicly listed price being $175 + shipping for PFT syringe recertification. The company operates a Contingent Talent Management portal for staffing coordination and a Patient Pay portal for patient billing. No external funding, acquisitions, or public-market activity are disclosed; Respitech is family-owned, self-funded, and operates as a multi-decade incumbent in a specialized respiratory niche.
