Our program will assist in managing and extending the life cycle of hospital equipment assets to prevent premature retirement from their ordinary course of activity due to performance failures and natural deterioration. A more comprehensive management of this equipment will substantially extend the life cycle at a cost efficient rate, minimizing replacement costs and therefore, eliminating unnecessary disposition. These hospital equipment assets that provide service to patients and nursing can fall between the lines of specific responsibility. They are often placed under the management of departments whose servicing capabilities limit the appropriate tools and space to sufficiently maintain this equipment category.
In addition, Symphony Medical will provide the data pertaining to the equipment's average life expectancy, appropriate deployment, technological standing, repair history, replacement values, upgradeability, FDA recall, issuances and safety updates. This information will help establish adequate guidelines in connection with each asset's future course of action during requisition by a department and for the purposes of total asset management.
