When it comes to medical imaging equipment, it is essential to have a service contract. Technical failures are common in most equipment, and medical imaging equipment is no exception. If you’re in the middle of a working day and experience downtime in your equipment, finding an engineer readily available to cater to your system needs is not only going to cost you a fortune, but it can even be rare to find a company that offers immediate service without a service contract. While many companies are known to issue service contracts for medical imaging equipment, third-party organizations have become a growing trend for issuing service contracts.
Some medical facilities may find that third-party companies are suitable for their organization, whereas, others may think third-party organizations are a bad idea. Whether you decide to choose a third-party organization for your service contract or decide to go with a service contract from your vendor is your personal choice. Either side comes with its own benefits depending on the medical facility.
This article was devised to address two of the most common myths that surround third-party servicing.
Myth: Third-party companies aren’t trained for handling medical imaging equipment.
Fact: Most third-party engineers are well-versed in the art of servicing medical imaging equipment. In some cases, they may even hold the same standard of medical imaging equipment training as an experienced vendor does.
Myth: Third-party companies can’t provide you with the parts you need.
Fact: There has been a significant increase in third-party organizations that sell parts in addition to their service. They may even collaborate with vendors to provide the required parts at a lower cost than an equipment vendor.
