Medical waste disposal is done by medical waste management companies, such as MedAssure, that are hired by health care providers. Doctors offices, hospitals, etc., hire the companies to remove medical waste in a safe manner. MedAssure, for example, disposes of medical waste with the use of a microwave system; an alternative to incineration.
