Mon Health Equipment and Supplies and DASCO Home Medical Equipment enter joint venture


MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Mon Health Equipment and Supplies and a national leader in durable medical equipment, DASCO Home Medical Equipment, have entered a joint venture to build a stronger more expansive company to better benefit the communities we serve across North Central West Virginia.

This newly combined joint venture, Mon Health – DASCO Home Medical Equipment, will expand our access to better pricing, collection of fees from services rendered and expand our ability to deliver the highest quality, lowest cost services across our region. We specialize in respiratory equipment such as home oxygen, non-invasive ventilation, and CPAP. The company also provides walkers, wheelchairs, adjustable beds, bedside commodes, orthopedic supplies, and other durable medical equipment items all available for delivery.

“Ensuring timely access always to our valued patients that entrust their care to our well-regarded Mon Health providers and programs in the communities we serve is our priority,” said David Goldberg, President and CEO of Mon Health System. “This joint venture will allow us to make the most of DASCO’s long-time expertise in the business and ensure Mon Health Equipment and Supplies in Weston and Morgantown remain a vibrant and committed community medical service as it has been for many years. Our Mon Health Equipment and Supplies has a rich history of serving the communities and have the best people. Together with DASCO, we will continue that legacy and have an even stronger foundation moving forward capitalizing on our respective strengths.”

Mon Health – DASCO Home Medical Equipment has staff and supplies on hand, rather than having to make arrangements that could delay leaving hospitals or doctor’s offices in the area or immediate use of the needed equipment. The addition of the new venture will be seamless for patients and the communities served.

DASCO is a family owned, national leader in home medical equipment with expansive expertise in West Virginia and nearby markets that will maintain the company’s mission of quality access to the patients we serve. This approach will generate stronger profitability and better pricing for items we sell to improve patient outcomes.

“We look forward to taking things to the next level with Mon Health, a healthcare leader that’s known for the highest quality of patient care,” said Jason Seeley, President of DASCO. “We’re excited about supporting the community, and we are happy this venture will benefit our communities across North Central West Virginia.”
