Do you keep maintenance records for surveys and inspections?
Yes. Every PM, repair and calibration is documented with the device, the tests performed, the results and the technician who did the work.

How does a medical equipment management strategy reduce costs for hospitals?
A medical equipment management program tracks every device's preventive maintenance schedule, spare parts and service history, so problems are caught before they turn into emergency repairs.

Disposition carried out by MBMTS is done by firstly evaluating the value of your equipment. If it's unusable, we help dispose of it safely. If your equipment is viable, then we assess the value, gather the right documentation, and move forward with donation or reselling.
