Can Health Care Costs Be Reduced through Medical Equipment Savings?

Medical facilities in every part of the United States are doing what they can to rein in health care costs and gear up for implementation of the Affordable Care Act. Purchasing used medical equipment is one way to do this. At Soma Technology, Inc., we sell new and restored medical equipment and employ a team of biomedical engineers to ensure quality control at every stage of restoration of used hospital equipment.

OEM Standards at Up to 60% Savings

Buying used hospital equipment and saving significant sums of money won't mean much if the equipment has not been restored to original equipment manufacturer specifications. If you plan to buy used medical equipment, settle for nothing less than restoration that brings the equipment back to like new condition in every aspect. This way you'll save money, but you won't worry about equipment quality causing problems.

The Key Is the Restoration Process

Restoration should be done by trained professionals under the supervision of biomedical engineering specialists. Refurbishing medical equipment should bring it back to OEM standards and should be indistinguishable from new. Know the process used to restore medical equipment when you consider buying used medical devices and make sure you get answers to all your questions about the equipment and refurbishment before you buy.

Parts Availability Is Critical

If you choose to purchase restored medical equipment, always check on parts availability. Your provider should guarantee parts availability for the equipment you choose for several years, without exception. Used equipment will be no good to you if there is a problem and you can't find parts for it. Don't be afraid to call a company's customer service line before buying to get a feel for the level of customer service you can expect.

Serve Patients Better and Reduce Capital Investment Costs

Used medical equipment makes it possible to serve more patients while keeping more control over costs, as long as you choose your medical equipment provider with care and consideration. At Soma Technology, Inc., our biomedical engineering staff ensures that used equipment is restored to full functionality, and that parts are available for the equipment before it is sold. Never settle for less.
