Capital Medical Equipment
Capital medical equipment is an investment and has a long lifespan compared with other types of equipment. If the equipment experiences wear and tear, and needs to be replaced in less than a year, it's not considered capital equipment.
Pricing and cost are crucial factors when purchasing medical equipment. You and your team want to establish a realistic budget. Therefore, cost of the equipment is one of the first factors to consider.
The price of capital medical equipment will vary depending on the size of the medical facility. A facility on the smaller end may consider equipment starting at $3,000 capital equipment, while a medium or large facility may consider equipment starting at $5,000 to be capital equipment. Pricing may be subjective when identifying a capital equipment purchase as it depends on what the facility considers costly. Most often you'll find that the $5,000 mark is the most common.

Standalone equipment simply means the equipment does not need any devices to properly function in providing patient care.
