The advantages and disadvantages of buying used medical equipment are not many, but there are some things that you should be aware of before you make any sort of purchase.
Surprisingly, the first thing that you should think about when it comes to buying used medical equipment is not money. Instead, consider the type of practice that you currently have (or, the type of practice that you want to open), and ask yourself if a certain piece of equipment will remain important for years to come. If you think that a new technology may soon present itself, buying a used piece of equipment may be the more logical approach to furnishing your practice. Still, the advantages and disadvantages of buying used medical equipment must be carefully examined.
One definite disadvantage associated with buying used medical equipment is that used equipment can sometimes be faulty. Since used equipment has already been a part of a previous medical practice, you have no idea what sort of repairs and abuse a particular machine may have taken. Another thing to think about when it comes to used medical equipment is the year in which the equipment was manufactured.
