Valuing Medical Equipment
Valuing Medical Equipment
Establishing the Fair Market Value (FMV) of heavy medical equipment is a multi-layered process. Linear accelerators accrue many costs when adding up the various parts. To better understand how to form a proper valuation, keep reading to become familiar with commonly used appraisal terms.
Fair Market Value (FMV) Also known as retail value, FMV is the price a buyer should anticipate paying to have the device relocated and installed at their location. Software relicensing, commissioning, and accessories required to operate the equipment are all extra fees.
Orderly Liquidation Value (OLV) Sometimes referred to as wholesale value, OLV is the price a buyer can expect when selling an as-is, where-is product.
In Place Value (IPV) Another name for IPV is turn-key or patient-ready value. It takes into account the values associated with the machine, including the cost of installation, commissioning, software licensing, regulation, accessories, and residual warranty coverage.
Some factors that impact the medical equipment s valuation include:
- Age
- Configuration
- Physical condition
- Useful life left
- Software version
- Functionality
- Removal path
- Resale market demand
- Wear and tear
- Geography
