Solstice Medical CEO Steps Down, Will Remain as CSO

Solstice Medical LLC, a provider of advanced surgical supply chain (SSC) software solutions for the healthcare industry, has put new company leadership in place and has plans for growth.

Daniel Sands, company founder and current CEO has stepped down and appointed Todd Melioris (pictured left) to take his place as top dog. Sands will remain executive chairman of the board and focus on strategic growth initiatives, and will continue daily involvement as chief strategy officer.

Melioris has a 19-year track record of successfully leading technology start-ups, emerging growth, middle market and public companies in a wide variety of industries, including healthcare. He has served as the CEO of the National Healthcare Council. A former McKesson Corporation executive, Melioris most recently grew hc1.com from a start-up to Healthcare’s leading CRM SaaS while achieving the Red Herring Top 100 Global Award. He is a co-founder of Client Server Solutions, which he grew from start-up to global reach that led to a successful IPO of the company’s stock. Melioris graduated with a B.S. in mathematics concentrated in computer science from the State University of New York College at Cortland and earned his masters degree in mathematics from Georgia State University.

“Bringing Todd Melioris to the Solstice leadership team marks a significant milestone in our company’s history. Todd’s experience in leading fast growing software technology companies is impressive, and everyone at Solstice is pleased that he will be leading the execution of our growth plans,” said Sands. “Todd brings the right combination of strategic insight, financial acumen and proven growth experience that will propel Solstice to the next level.”

Leveraging its RFID (radio-frequency identification) pedigree, Solstice has transformed itself into a leading healthcare business intelligence company. The company currently holds five U.S patents, two European patents, and is poised for explosive growth in the health information technology and software sector.

“I am privileged to be a part of the Solstice team. They are leading the charge in surgical supply chain software solutions that delivers actionable business intelligence that ultimately reduces cost, while increasing procedure revenue and increases both patient and provider satisfaction scores,” said Melioris. “Solstice is already a market leader in offering these solutions to large integrated delivery networks in the Midwest and is poised for even more significant growth in the next few years.”
