MANAGED EQUIPMENT SERVICES (MES)

Typically a hospital’s route to the healthcare technology market was either a capital purchase or leasing. However, these two options only provide hospitals with access to financing options. What hospitals really require is access to a complete equipment management solution.

What is a managed equipment service?

This type of solution is a relatively new procurement method that improves collaboration between the public and private sectors. An MES solution allows you to benefit from the latest healthcare equipment with an always-on solution for a known fixed, monthly, quarterly, or annual fee. With an MES, the solution provider doesn’t just sell the equipment; they provide a full managed service for a fixed fee. This managed service agreement typically includes the following:

  • Replacement of the equipment at given intervals ensuring it’s always up to date
  • Full maintenance and service packages
  • Consumable items
  • Installation and commissioning of the equipment
  • Training (as required)
  • Facilities management
  • Disposal of the equipment
  • An asset and contract management system to monitor and track both the equipment and any associated contracts
  • A bespoke financial solution designed to generate significant cost savings

What are the benefits of a Managed Equipment Service Solution?

With dwindling budgets hospital managers and procurement directors need to consider the cost of the investment, against the potential return more than ever. A Managed Equipment Service can provide an always-on solution that gives you access to innovative healthcare technology alongside many tangible cost-efficiency benefits.

  • Better patient throughput and outcomes
  • Simple procurement process
  • Simple documentation
  • No disposal costs
  • Matching costs against assets economic useful life
