Solutions for hospitals
Four ways to pay for critical-care equipment, one program that lowers the rate on all of them, and terms written for rural hospitals.
Every hospital we work with signs one master agreement. Under it, each piece of equipment can be financed in whichever of the four ways suits it, and the ways can be mixed in one unit: beds on Utilization Pricing, ventilators on a subscription, monitors on Technology Refresh.
| Feature | Equipment finance | Utilization Pricing | Critical Care Subscription | Technology Refresh |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| You pay | A fixed monthly payment | Per occupied bed-hour, above a monthly minimum | A fee per subscribed bed, per month | A fixed monthly payment |
| Term | 24 to 84 months | 60 to 84 months | 36 to 60 months | 72 to 96 months |
| Service included | Optional | Optional | Yes: maintenance, repairs, loaners, software | Optional; software support always current |
| At the end | Buy, return or extend | Buy, return or extend | Return or renew | New generation at month 48 |
| Best for | Predictable census; equipment you will keep | Seasonal census; new units | Units that want one line in the budget | Equipment that ages by its software |
| Equipment | All | ICU beds | Ventilators, monitors, infusion | Monitoring, infusion |
