Implantable Provider Group Secures a Three-Fold Increase in Their Line of Credit from Silicon Valley Bank
ATLANTA–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Implantable Provider Group (IPG), a leader in providing market based medical implant solutions that deliver tangible value to payors, manufacturers, providers and patients, has secured a three-fold increase in their line of credit arrangement with Silicon Valley Bank. Profitable since inception in 2004, IPG has grown at a 76% compounded annual rate for the past seven years, with a primary focus on large, fast-growth device intensive markets, such as cardiology, neurology, orthopedic and spine implants.
Over the last several years, Implantable Provider Group has been privileged to engage in a number of ongoing partnerships with national and regional health plans breaking new ground for them in lowering implantable device costs while delivering more transparency and predictability to their implantable device spend. IPG is solving the problem of price variability, high markups, and utilization and trend increases that have historically plagued health plans’ implantable device management.
“As the implantable device market continues to grow, IPG is committed to providing valuable solutions that address the continued rising costs in healthcare. We are excited to be partnering with Silicon Valley Bank, which will afford the company additional access to working capital to expand our infrastructure in support of our rapidly growing payor base. This will enable us to aggressively deploy key technology to deliver added efficiencies to our customers and drive future growth. SVB has been a strong and creative partner for us in working with both our financing needs and bank technology support,” said Todd Rielly, Chief Financial Officer for IPG.
“Helping life science and technology companies position themselves for growth is what we do best,” said Chris Stanley, relationship manager for Silicon Valley Bank. ”IPG is focused on a critical sector of the market and we’re proud to be able to support its efforts with the financing it needs to achieve its goals.”
