Why you need to invest in a medical new device now

The shutdown of the manufacturing industry due to the pandemic wreaked havoc on the production of electronics, leading to delays in the delivery of medical equipment. So, if you plan to invest in one, it's in your best interest to anticipate while inventory is available, but there are also other reasons why you should take advantage of this moment.

As a new year approaches, it's natural to feel the urge to renew yourself personally and professionally. One of the professional aspects that is common to consider is to invest in new medical devices that will help you improve your practice and take better care of your patients. Also, there are other aspects that it is a good idea to weigh, let's see them.

Although the price of a device is important, it should not be the purchase maker since “The bitter aftertaste of low quality lasts a lot longer than the sweet taste of a low price”. That is why it is more reasonable to choose based on:

• Your needs. Analyze the volume of patients you see and how many of them need tests you can perform (and charge, of course!).
• The advantages of the device. If in addition to helping you make accurate diagnoses it is easy to use, requires low-cost consumables and helps you improve workflow, that is just what you need!
•  The return on investment.  A simple way to calculate how long this will take is to make a mathematical calculation that includes the volume of patients you attend, the reimbursement you´ll get for the tests you perform with the new device and the price of it. But at this point you also need to consider about the new patients who will arrive attracted by the news that you use a more modern device, as well as the extra income you will get from the tests you did not previously offer.

You or your hospital surely already enjoy professional prestige. But in this fast-moving age, the fact that patients realize that you change devices from time to time adds a plus to your already brilliant performance. The medical profession is characterized by constant science and technological advances, what better way to demonstrate that you are at the forefront of information than to use modern technology? Believe it or not, patients do realize when a physician performs tests that he did not offer before, or if the devices he uses look new. Renewing them every so often is another proof that they are in the best hands. 

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted manufacturing companies in general because contagions and border closures have delayed the production of essential parts for various industries, without the delay having been reversed to date. This has affected the production of electronic equipment and the medical industry has been no exception. There are shortages of aluminum and other materials used to make semiconductors, lithium batteries and other components essential for medical equipment. Therefore, as you may have already noticed, there is a considerable delay in deliveries of these.

So, if you don't make a prompt decision you run the risk of having to wait for your new device longer than expected, or worse! having to wait until it is back in inventory. Acting immediately will save you a lot of hassle. 

If you are in charge of the buying department of a public or private hospital it is convenient to remember that the budget you are assigned every year has the purpose of improving the service. Investing in new devices benefits physicians (who can diagnose better), nurses (who can work better and faster), and of course patients (who get accurate diagnoses and treatments). In other words, not investing in modern devices or not renewing old ones can impact staff workflow and patient outcomes, lower service quality and, in the case of private hospitals, diminish your revenues.
