Descriptiontext

Medical Action Industries develops, manufactures, markets, and supplies a range of disposable medical products. The company was founded in 1977 and was headquartered in Brentwood, New York, United States, and historically traded on Nasdaq under the ticker MDCI before being delisted, consistent with a change-of-control transaction in which the company was acquired. The company's product portfolio centered on single-use medical devices used in clinical and surgical settings, including categories such as fluid management, collection systems, and general medical-surgical disposables, with operations and revenue scale historically supporting 1,001-5,000 employees.

The business model is consistent with a traditional medical device contract manufacturer and brand owner: Medical Action Industries produced and sold disposable products to hospitals, surgery centers, and alternate-care providers, typically through medical-surgical distributors and group purchasing organizations (GPOs). Paul D Meringolo was listed as Chief Executive Officer. A reference in the input to a Halyard Health infusion therapy kits product page, combined with the delisted status, is consistent with a prior divestiture of certain product lines (notably infusion-related disposables) to a strategic acquirer and the subsequent sale of the remainder of the company to Owens & Minor in 2017. No current financial, customer, product, or operational data is available in the input, which limits the ability to characterize post-acquisition strategy or performance.
