Learning why

Using the Most Current Order Form is Very Important

Order Accuracy

Our forms (in some cases) have gone through dozens of revisions with updates to assure more accurate measurement, reducing both miscommunication and returns for adjustment. While we appreciate the fitter’s form preference, using an outdated Gottfried Medical form, or a competitor’s form, not only makes manufacturing your order more difficult, it increases the chance for error and the need to return it for adjustment. When this occurs, the patient is inconvenienced, and your time is wasted.

Timely Delivery

You are aware of the importance of getting the patient wearing the garment as soon as possible. While Gottfried Medical guarantees correct fit and counter pressure, returning a garment for adjustment either delays beginning the treatment process or interferes with ongoing treatment. It is all about patient compliance. Using an up-to-date Gottfried Medical order form and accurately completing it helps assure getting the order right the first time and on time.

Patient Comfort & Convenience

Beyond providing accurate measurements, using the most current Gottfried Medical order form provides you with a list of standardized options you otherwise may not be aware are available. There are options on almost every form to ease donning, doffing and to improve comfort while the garment is worn. Help your patient and learn the standard options. Using an up-to-date Gottfried Medical order form makes it easy.

Patient Safety

Patient safety is always a primary concern at Gottfried Medical. To help communicate this and to meet FDA requirements, all our current order forms include safety information. This information may be updated at any time. When an update occurs, a notice (including details) is posted on our website in two locations, under "Resources," highlighted in gold.

Controlling Costs

We are all price conscious and sensitive to price increases regardless of the reason. When you submit your orders on up-to-date Gottfried Medical order forms, you are helping us control costs. This is accomplished by reducing miscommunication and the need to make follow-up calls for missing or improperly provided information.

Processing returns for adjustment (while a part of our guarantee) is costly, involving both additional labor and shipping. These returns can (oftentimes) be avoided simply by submitting your orders on an up-to-date Gottfried Medical order form.
