Should healthcare facilities invest in medical equipment now or wait till the end of 2025?
This is a question we increasingly hear from healthcare facility managers.
The answer isn’t black and white — but there are some undeniable facts:
1. Medical equipment is becoming a strategic asset — especially ultrasound machines, endoscopy systems, and advanced diagnostic imaging.
2. Delivery times are getting longer — due to disruptions in Asia and shifts in global production strategies.
3. Postponing investment decisions today often leads to higher costs tomorrow — both financially and operationally.
What are we seeing on the ground?
– Accelerated purchasing decisions due to concerns over further delays.
– Growing domestic demand, supported by funding opportunities through the National Recovery Plan (KPO).
– Increasing importance of equipment origin and the availability of local service support.
– Rising interest in diverse financing models for medical equipment.
– Hands-on evaluation of equipment by medical staff under real working conditions.
– Purchase decisions based on prior clinical experience with similar technologies.
