Annual Formulary Reviews for Medication Disposal
Miki Hendrickson – Director of Compliance and Safety
An annual formulary review ensures staff properly dispose of medications as drug lists and regulations change. It reduces safety risks, prevents improper disposal, and supports compliance. Amergy Disposal helps businesses stay compliant by reviewing formularies, identifying correct waste streams, and educating staff on proper medication disposal for safe, confident pharmaceutical waste management.
Medical Waste Incinerator Emissions Standards
Mason Grace – National Sales
Federal regulators have updated the Hospital, Medical, and Infectious Waste Incinerator (HMIWI) emissions standards, reinforcing stricter limits on air pollutants released during the combustion of medical waste. The updated standards aim to reduce harmful emissions such as particulate matter, heavy metals, and dioxins, improving air quality and public health. Healthcare facilities using on-site or contracted incineration must review compliance practices, monitoring, and documentation to meet the revised environmental requirements.
Secure Shredding & HIPAA Compliance
Ryan Nelson – Partner
As healthcare organizations handle growing volumes of sensitive information, proper document shredding is essential for HIPAA compliance. Improper disposal of PHI can lead to breaches, fines, and lost trust. Amergy Disposal helps organizations stay compliant with certified, secure shredding services and documented chains of custody, ensuring sensitive records are safely destroyed and patient privacy protected.
