Buying Considerations

  • Does real, local patient demand exist for this category, or would you be building demand from scratch?
  • What is the true all-in consumable and service cost per treatment, not just the headline device price?
  • What provider licensing or training does your state require for this technology?
  • How much physical space and staff time does a typical protocol require?
  • What does the published evidence base actually say — and have you verified device-specific claims directly with the manufacturer?
  • What warranty, service, and manufacturer support terms come with the device, and for how long?
