In today's dynamic health care environment, extending the useful life of any medical device is important to the institution's overall financial condition. With replacement costs of surgical instruments increasing and operating costs decreasing, a refurbishment program can provide solutions to both problems. BioTronics Inc., a medical technology management organization, offers a surgical instrument service program that may dramatically reduce the operating costs of maintaining the proper selection and inventory of surgical instruments. As a bonus benefit, the program also increases the life of each instrument which adds to reduction of operating costs. They average over 10 years of experience in the metal work and machining trades.
Services are available on a contractual or time and materials basis.
Through a contractual arrangement, BioTronics Inc. provides all minor repair and preventive maintenance services at one annual fee. This fee includes sharpening, alignment and deburring of the normal selection of surgical instruments. Additional contractual arrangements can be made based on the inventory of surgical instruments.
