Did you know that end user prices for MRI and CT
scans have gone up more than 50 in the past six
months? Costs are high CT And whether you buy
equipment from third-party providers or OEMs,
equipment costs have also increased.

Blame It on the Pandemic Inflation Supply
chain disruptions during COVID-19 are plaguing
the medical imaging industry, just like other
major industries. Its been difficult to get
components like semiconductors and mylar rings,
thanks to shelter-in-place orders and shutdowns.
Factories cant keep up with orders from pent-up
demand. As a result, OEMS have delayed contracts
or even cancelled them.

Shipping costs are also to blame, with rates
doubling and even tripling, due to increases in
fuel costs, delays and backlogs. Another
complication? Many businesses in the U.S.
received financial relief from the government,
including healthcare facilities. This extra cash
has inspired these operations to buy new imaging
equipment or to update existing equipment. This
rise in demand, combined with the reduction in
supply from manufacturing shutdowns, is why
prices are higher and continue to rise.

Prices probably wont even out until all the
links in the supply chain catch up with
unrequited demandprobably in Q4 of 2022 we hope.
That said, if you want new or upgraded equipment,
it might be wise to start the buying process now.
The extra lead time might help you avoid the
additional costs of short turnaround. Its also
wise to let your buying decisions be
opportunity-driven instead of date-driven. Try
giving your medical imaging equipment provider
the chance to work around the availability of
equipment instead of a hard deadline. That way,
youre more likely to get what you want, at a
better price.
