Norristown, Pa. July 25, 2023 – MRO Corp., a clinical data exchange company, was recently added to the Peer Review Program™ for orthopedic and musculoskeletal vendors, by The American Alliance of Orthopaedic Executives (AAOE) for the Clinics Disability & FMLA Forms and Clinics Release of Information.

The AAOE Peer Review Program™ has been established to evaluate vendors of orthopedic products, services, and solutions. Approved vendors have demonstrated a strong reputation for advancing orthopedic practice objectives.

The Peer Review Program™ alleviates the stress AAOE members experience when searching for new solutions by recommending vendors determined to best meet the needs of their community. The program requires prospective vendors to apply to an evaluation consisting of a thorough 11-step process with submission of supporting materials, access to existing and prospective customers for actual end user and voice of customer surveys, plus an evaluation by the AAOE Member Peer Review Panel to determine if alignment exists.

The evaluation process focuses on identifying vendors whose values align with that of AAOE’s and who offer:

  • Enhanced productivity for the individual user and customer’s organization
  • Ease of installation and use
  • Accuracy and reliability
  • Good value for the price
  • Excellent technical support and customer service

AAOE is thrilled to announce the latest company to earn the AAOE Peer Reviewed™ designation is MRO. In the survey conducted through the Peer Review process all respondents either agreed or strongly agreed that they would recommend MRO to colleagues, and that the services satisfy a need in the industry, as well as provide good value.

“MRO is committed to offering the orthopedic industry superior solutions and service to ease the burdens traditionally placed on office staff to complete disability and FMLA forms, as well as complete release of information requests,” said Ben Zmigrodski, President of Provider Solutions for MRO. “We will continue to assist our partners in reducing turnaround times, increasing patient satisfaction, and allowing office staff to get back to higher-value tasks.”

“AAOE’s Peer Reviewed Program™ lets me and the rest of the orthopedic community know that AAOE members recognize that a given vendor offers a results-oriented solution, delivered by an organization that is easy to work with. Orthopedic practice executives no longer need to worry or wonder which products, services, or organizations are a good fit,” said Megan O’Hara, AAOE President and Practice Manager for Robert V. Moriarty, MD, PC.
