Answers:
It's biomedical waste that's red-bagged and placed in a bio waste container. When full, waste containers are taken to a designated storage area. Hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers contract with companies that manage biomed waste. The waste management companies pick up from their clients on a regular schedule. The bio waste may be incinerated but there are also other methods used to treat it.Health Question & Answer
