Case Study: US Med-Equip cuts audit time in half with Vanta

How US Med-Equip cut audit time in half with Vanta

US Med-Equip, a U.S.-based healthcare company that rents, sells, services, and manages medical equipment for thousands of hospitals, needed a better way to prove security and compliance as it worked toward direct integrations with hospital EMR systems. To support SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA requirements, the team needed a more proactive, repeatable approach than manual spreadsheets and lengthy audit preparation. Vanta provided the trust management platform, including SOC 2 and HIPAA support, to help address that challenge.

With Vanta, US Med-Equip got a customized onboarding experience, continuous visibility into its security posture, and automation that reduced reliance on manual tracking and auditor meetings. The company reported that Vanta cut audit preparation and completion time in half, with Joe Berglund estimating the process would have taken twice as long without it. Vanta also helped US Med-Equip build a more security-minded culture and gave the team ongoing confidence in its compliance status.
