Medical Equipment Planning is a very important process at the Project Stage of any Healthcare Facility. It is actually the key to success of the entire Project. With over 35% of the Total Project Cost going for Equipment Procurement, the proper planning of this activity is crucial to the entire feasibility of the Project. Even a 10% variation in the costs or delivery schedules of Medical Equipments can postpone the breakeven period of the Hospital by 2-3 years, severely impacting the financial viability of the venture.
