Acquisition extends Green Security beyond vendor credentialing with surgical vendor scheduling and loaner tray management to improve operating room readiness
CLEARWATER, Fla. – Sept. 1, 2026 – Green Security, a leading provider of healthcare vendor operations and intelligence solutions, today announced it has acquired VenSero, a surgical vendor coordination platform that helps health systems improve operating room readiness by coordinating vendor representatives, loaner equipment and surgical workflows before every procedure.
VenSero is embedded directly within Epic OpTime, enabling perioperative teams to coordinate vendor representatives, loaner instrumentation and case readiness within their existing clinical workflows. Combined with Green Security’s credentialing, compliance and vendor access capabilities, the acquisition creates a more connected workflow spanning the critical operational steps that take place before a surgical procedure.
“Hospitals don’t think about vendor credentialing, surgical scheduling and loaner equipment as separate challenges,” said Mickey Meehan, CEO of Green Security. “They think about whether a case is ready. That’s what makes VenSero such a strong fit. Together, we’re giving healthcare organizations a more complete view of everything that happens before a procedure begins so they can reduce delays, improve coordination and better support patient care.”
Founded in 2010, VenSero is one of the healthcare industry’s longest-running surgical vendor coordination platforms. Embedded directly within Epic OpTime, the platform enables perioperative teams to schedule vendor representatives, coordinate loaner instrumentation and monitor case readiness without leaving their existing clinical workflow. The platform is trusted by leading health systems in Baltimore and the greater northeast region.
That earlier visibility can give surgical teams substantially more time to identify and resolve potential issues before a procedure. At the leading academic medical center in Boston, VenSero expanded visibility into upcoming surgical cases from approximately seven days to as much as four weeks, giving surgeons, perioperative leaders and sterile processing teams additional time to coordinate vendor representatives, equipment and instrumentation. The added lead time supports better surgical planning and helps reduce disruptions caused by missing or delayed vendor support.
Together, Green Security and VenSero connect two parts of surgical vendor operations that have traditionally been managed separately. Green Security verifies that vendor representatives are credentialed and authorized to enter the facility, while VenSero coordinates their participation in upcoming cases, along with the loaner equipment and instrumentation those procedures require. This gives hospitals greater visibility from vendor authorization through case readiness while allowing them to retain control over scheduling and access.
“For more than 15 years, we’ve worked side by side with perioperative teams to solve the daily operational challenges that can delay surgeries,” said Mark Stickler, founder and president of VenSero. “Joining forces with Green Security allows us to build on that work while connecting vendor coordination with the credentialing and operational workflows hospitals already rely on every day. Together, we’re helping healthcare organizations prepare for surgery with greater confidence and fewer surprises.”
VenSero will continue supporting existing customers while Green Security integrates the platform into its broader VendorOps strategy. The combined platform will give Green Security the foundation to bring credentialing, vendor access, surgical scheduling and equipment readiness into a more unified view, while expanding the operational data available to health systems as they manage surgical vendor activity.
