Abstract

Medical Surplus Recovery Organizations (MSROs) play a vital role in closing the gap in global healthcare disparities. These organizations collect unused medical supplies, devices, and medicines, turning potential waste into hope for those in need. In this presentation we advocate for the use of MSROs, identify stakeholders, and provide a plan to determine effectiveness of the awareness campaign.
