What Medicom does
Me.di.com. S.r.l., operating as Medicom (Medicina Diagnostica Computerizzata), is a Bari, Italy-based authorized distributor and service provider of medical diagnostic and electromedical equipment, founded in 1986 by two entrepreneurs and active for nearly four decades. The company represents premium international manufacturers including Esaote (commercial agency since 1989, service since 2005), Agfa (partner since 1986, co-pioneered Italy's first digital radiology conversion at Policlinico di Bari in 1990), Schiller, Spacelabs, Centrel, Fiocchetti, Fukuda, and Bontempi. Its portfolio spans ultrasound systems (Esaote MyLab series across cart-based, portable, and wireless configurations), MRI (Magnifico, G-Scan, S-Scan, O-Scan open/extremity systems), mammography (EXAview 3D), electromedicine (Schiller defibrillators, Cardiovit ECG, Holter/ABP, spirometry, ergometry), hysteroscopy/colposcopy (Centrel), Agfa radiology (RIS/PACS Impax, CR digitizers, DR), and dedicated veterinary imaging lines.
Medicom operates a hybrid revenue model combining equipment resale (hardware sales via distributor pricing to hospitals, clinics, and private practices), multi-year Global Service contracts covering entire hospital equipment fleets (notably 6-year deals at IRCCS De Bellis and multi-year regional tenders for ASL Bari and the Policlinici of Bari and Foggia), professional technical assistance under individual service agreements, public-tender procurement (Gare Regionali in Puglia), and recurring training and education revenue from the long-standing Centro Teaching programme. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales supported by manufacturer-authorized service centers, regional tender participation, and an emerging digital lead-generation funnel through medicom.it. Customer concentration is heavily weighted to public hospitals and regional health authorities in Apulia, with selectively expanding reach into private clinics, veterinary practices, and biomedical-engineer training programs.
