Lease or buy: optimizing capital equipment procurement.
Many physician group practices struggle over whether to buy or lease equipment. While purchasing has been the traditional method of acquiring equipment, leasing often can be more cost-effective. Conducting a lease-versus-purchase analysis can help group practices arrive at the most cost-effective decision. Careful consideration of the alternatives can lead to the best use of the group's resources to meet its financial goals.
