Extending Budgets: Beyond Purchasing

As we near the end of 2024, many hospitals, clinics, and EMS agencies are working to make the most of minimal capital budgets. Many of the healthcare industry’s efforts turn to financial adjustments to fund new equipment, replacing the overused units from recent years. It’s no secret: you need new equipment. Old equipment is used repeatedly, and older equipment can lack integrity and accuracy even when calibrated, which could lead to life-threatening problems. The question is: Are there alternative solutions besides traditional purchasing?

Benefits of Renting

A great example of the need for calibrations is infusion pumps. Infusion pumps need to be calibrated to maintain their accuracy when infusing various IVs into patients. New technology is constantly raising the bar for accuracy and durability of these devices, continually improving the standard of quality and patient safety. IV Pumps have cost of ownership besides just the initial purchasing price. Clinical managers must prepare for financial decisions including replacing old units, repairs, Preventative Maintenance, and calibrations, disposable infusion pump sets, the quality of replacement parts, etc. Renting pumps through MME Rentals is an easy way to simplify your process and avoid extra ownership costs.

When renting equipment, like an infusion pump, through MME Rentals, the package includes regular maintenance, warranty, repairs, and asset management. Medical equipment decisions like purchasing, unit disposal, annual maintenance, repairs, trade-ins, etc. vanish instantly.

So what’s the best course of action? Renting is a fantastic option to keep a unit for as long as you need it, with no worries of warranty or maintenance. Another significant benefit of our rental service is time flexibility, so you don’t have to hang on to a device longer than you need it. Renting also allows you to acquire units through operating expense budgets, as opposed to capital expense budgets. Many organizations can’t gain all equipment needed within the limitations of only their CapX budget.
