Why the Right Equipment Planner Can Save Your Surgery Center Millions
Building an Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) is a major investment, and every decision you make—especially regarding equipment—can have long-term financial implications. The difference between a well-planned, cost-effective equipment strategy and an overpriced, inefficient one can mean millions of dollars in savings or losses over the life of your center.
At KenMed Surgical, we understand that equipment decisions don’t just impact your upfront costs—they affect your total cost of ownership (TCO), uptime, and long-term profitability. That’s why our approach is different. We don’t just sell equipment; we provide data-driven recommendations that maximize your return on investment and minimize hidden costs like maintenance, repairs, and downtime.
The Hidden Costs of Downtime: Why Uptime Matters More Than Price
Many ASC owners focus on the sticker price of equipment, but the true cost of your surgical suite goes far beyond the purchase price. The biggest hidden expense in any ASC is downtime—every minute a surgical table, sterilizer, or anesthesia machine is out of commission, your revenue potential drops.
That’s why choosing a vendor with deep knowledge of serviceability, parts availability, and repair likelihood is crucial. A low upfront cost means little if you’re constantly dealing with expensive repairs, unreliable performance, and unexpected service disruptions.
At KenMed, we prioritize uptime. Our proprietary service history database tracks real-world equipment performance across facilities nationwide, giving us unmatched insight into which models are the most reliable and cost-effective over time.
For example, many centers opt for budget-friendly sterilizers without realizing that Steris systems consistently outperform cheaper alternatives when it comes to long-term reliability, maintenance ease, and parts availability. With our data-driven approach, you don’t just get a good deal—you get the right deal that keeps your ASC running smoothly.
How KenMed’s Proprietary Database Gives You a Competitive Edge

With our insights, you’re not just purchasing equipment—you’re investing in predictability, performance, and long-term savings.
Why Certified Refurbished Equipment is the Smartest Investment for Your ASC
New equipment isn’t always the best choice for an ASC. Certified refurbished equipment offers the perfect balance of cost savings and performance, allowing you to:
✅ Cut Equipment Costs by 30–50% – Without sacrificing reliability.
✅ Get Higher-End Technology – At a price point that fits your budget.
✅ Ensure Peak Performance – With KenMed’s in-house refurbishing and testing process.
✅ Enjoy Extended Warranties & Support – Backed by our expert service team.
By incorporating certified refurbished equipment into your ASC’s procurement strategy, you can allocate more resources to patient care, staff training, and facility enhancements—without compromising equipment reliability.
