Kansas City is home to a thriving healthcare sector — from major hospital systems like University of Kansas Health System and Saint Luke’s Health System to thousands of private practices, dental offices, veterinary clinics, tattoo studios, and long-term care facilities. Every one of these businesses generates regulated medical waste that requires proper handling, documentation, and disposal.
