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: Mitigates risk of legal penalties, enforcement actions, and reputational damage by ensuring both parties understand and commit to regulatory standards.
Negotiation strategy
If you're the Healthcare Provider:
Ensure that all compliance obligations are clearly defined and that responsibilities for monitoring and reporting are allocated. Advocate for specific remedies in case of non-compliance to protect against potential risks.
If you're the Lessee:
Negotiate for a cooperative approach to compliance monitoring and reporting. Aim to include flexible remedies that can be determined in good faith to accommodate unforeseen circumstances.
