A Medical Equipment Lease & Purchase Agreement governs acquisition or leasing of medical devices and technology. This playbook addresses maintenance, warranties, and ownership transfer terms.
Why This Matters: Enables early detection of non-compliance or financial discrepancies, reducing regulatory and operational risks.
Negotiation strategy
If you're the Healthcare Provider:
Ensure audit rights are comprehensive enough to cover all necessary records and facilities. Negotiate for reasonable notice periods and remediation timelines to minimize operational disruptions.
If you're the Lessee:
Limit the scope of audits to essential records to protect sensitive information. Advocate for longer notice periods to prepare adequately for audits.
