Preventative Maintenance Is Important When You Buy Used Medical Equipment
When looking to buy used medical equipment, there are several considerations to take into place. These factors include preventative maintenance, servicing costs, medical and governmental regulations, the potential lifespan and safety of your equipment, and more. At CSAT Medical we are experts at helping you maintain and service all medical equipment to provide the best care to your patients.
Cost-Effective
Most medical offices look to buy used medical equipment to save money. Used equipment might have a lower price tag initially, however, it is only more cost-effective in the long run if it is properly maintained and serviced. Unplanned equipment failure can be disastrous for any practice. Out of commission equipment means lost revenue, more expensive repairs, and can decrease the quality of patient care. Preventative maintenance, especially for used equipment, is a smart investment that provides significant returns throughout the lifetime of your medical equipment.
Increases Efficiency and Life Span
When you buy used medical equipment, it can be as efficient and long-lasting as new equipment with proper preventative maintenance services. Regular maintenance optimizes the efficiency of most machines. This saves time employees spend using the machine that can be dedicated to patients instead. A preventative equipment maintenance schedule ensures that you maximize the potential of your employees, practice, and patient care. Additionally, preventative maintenance helps protect and lengthen the potential lifespan of your equipment even if you buy used medical equipment.
Increases Safety of Equipment and Satisfies Regulations
Finally, preventative maintenance of equipment increases its safety and reliability. Medical equipment requires regular maintenance to safely serve your patients and comply with many medical and governmental regulations. When you schedule preventative maintenance for your equipment, our technicians can identify potential future issues and replace them before problems become emergent and cause patient care issues. A solid reputation for patient care, safety, and compliance with regulations is something every medical practitioner desires, and CSAT Medical can help you achieve those goals! Contact us today!
