Case Study: SAMGI saves time and speeds month-end close with Ramp

How SAMGI saved time, reduced fraud, and improved employee experience with Ramp

SAMGI (Surgical Affiliates Management Group), a healthcare organization providing 24/7 emergency surgical coverage for hospitals nationwide, was struggling with manual spend and expense workflows that created friction for employees and extra work for finance. With a growing workforce, frequent travel, and a need to support patient care around the clock, the team needed a better way to manage cards, receipts, approvals, and month-end close. They turned to Ramp for corporate cards, expense management, and accounting automation.

With Ramp, SAMGI implemented virtual corporate cards, spend controls, automated receipt capture, custom approvals, and accounting/AP automations integrated with Sage Intacct. The result was a faster, cleaner finance process: the team reclaimed 35 hours per month on expense submissions and approvals, cut month-end close by more than a day, and now closes 2.5x faster with automations. SAMGI also completed a two-week card migration without disrupting vendors, and has saved over $100K with Ramp’s controls and cash back.
