There are many reasons to purchase used medical equipment.
There are a lot of people involved in the medical equipment refurbishment business. The marketplace requires companies to refurbish the equipment and different companies to sell the refurbished equipment. Some businesses perform both tasks. The original equipment manufacturer usually only deals with new products and machines.
There are different levels of refurbishment. Medical equipment may be pre-owned, used, refurbished, or reconditioned, in addition to being new. Not all these terms are synonymous, however. “Used” equipment is generally sold as is. “Pre-owned” means the equipment was purchased new by someone else, but does not indicate the duration of ownership or the condition the unit was in at the time of resale. A refurbished or reconditioned unit has been repaired in some way, either functionally, cosmetically, or both.
