KC MEDICAL INC

What KC MEDICAL INC does

KC Medical Inc. is a Kansas City-based Emergency Medical Services (EMS) company founded in 1995 that provides on-site medical coverage for special events, venues, and festivals. The company's core offering is Advanced Life Support (ALS) and Basic Life Support (BLS) staffing, supplemented by a portfolio of adjacent service modules including Festival EMS Management, Tour Medics/Safety, VIP Medical Services, Communications/Event Dispatching, Professional EMS Consulting, Event Risk Management, Event Medical Budgeting, and COVID-19 Screening. The underlying "technology" is operational rather than software-based: certified, insured clinical personnel with mandatory NIMS 100, 200, and 700 training deliver medical services using company-supplied equipment and supplies, supported by dispatch and pre-event planning workflows. The company reports coverage of over 1,500 events per year and has trained more than 1,200 people per year in CPR/AED over the past 10 years.

The business is a professional services operation with three revenue streams: (1) event medical services priced via custom quote-based contracts (multi-year arrangements with venue exclusivity), (2) education and training classes sold on unit pricing (CPR/AED at $25/student, ACLS at $100/student, PALS and Stop The Bleed available), and (3) EMS consulting and event medical budgeting services. The go-to-market is direct sales-led, with customers requesting services via phone (913-962-6200) or a website contact form. Long-tenured exclusivity agreements with major Kansas City venues (Cable Dahmer Arena, Starlight Theatre, Kauffman Center, Power & Light District, T-Bones Stadium) anchor the customer base, while partnerships with producers like NPB Companies (20+ years) and Borda Productions (9+ years) provide recurring festival work. The primary customer segments are event organizers/festival producers and entertainment venues/arenas, with secondary segments in VIP/private events and individual/professional medical training.

KC Medical operates from its headquarters at 6100 Nieman Rd, Suite 210, Shawnee, Kansas, with a 26-person team. The company is privately held, founder-led, and bootstrapped, with no disclosed external funding, acquisitions, or parent company. The primary service geography is the Kansas City Metro Area, with a claimed professional presence across the rest of the United States and select international clients.
