Third-party capital equipment management cuts costs.
In an effort to reduce maintenance, repair, and reorder costs associated with the wide range of capital equipment necessary for the operation of most healthcare facilities, some healthcare organizations are turning to third-party capital equipment management companies. These companies can help reduce costs by providing the high-level technical expertise many facilities lack, reducing response time when equipment servicing is necessary, and developing effective preventive maintenance programs.
