Hospital equipment auctions latest online innovation

It is a rare profession these days that has not made good use of the latest trend of auctions over the internet. The good news is, now medical professionals also can benefit from hospital equipment auctions through a new site that has been developed by MedBay Inc.

MedBay Inc.'s dynamic new marketplace for hospital equipment auctions aims to serve the many health care professionals who wish to sell or buy good quality medical equipment. Individual practitioners such as doctors and dentists, surgery centers, imaging centers, health clinics and full service hospitals are just a few of the many medical professionals who can take advantage of online auctions where they can buy much needed medical equipment at affordable prices while selling equipment that they no longer need.

Unused equipment that takes up space in a health facility represents both a financial drain and a potential life lost or impaired. That's because many health care services with more limited resources might be able to purchase good quality equipment through a medical equipment auction. Whatever the equipment or device that is inactive, there's a medical facility somewhere could improve its care by purchasing the equipment. That's why MedBay Inc. has begun offering hospital equipment auctions.

Furthermore, each medical equipment auction offered by MedBay Inc. provides a safe and secure way to sell and buy used hospital equipment. All the equipment offered through MedBay.com come from its client network; none is owned by the company itself. In addition, MedBay's full-service sales force knows medical equipment, and can help any customer conclude a successful medical equipment auction.

MedBay.com offers extensive categories for hospital equipment auctions. For example, dentistry has become a sophisticated health care specialty, especially since recent medical research has shown that the gateway to good health is often through healthy teeth and gums. MedBay.com's new site provides categories for all kinds of dental equipment:

Air Abrasion Unit, Dental Chair, Digital Imaging, Dental Laboratory, Dental Laser, Dental Nitrous Oxide System, Ultra Sonic Cleaner, Dental X-Ray, even an Intraoral Camera.

Doctors in private practice along with health care clinics will find plenty of good quality used equipment to help outfit their services. Medbay.com's site offers a separate category for Exam Room needs, including such items as Audiometer and Colposcope; cabinets, chairs, stands and surgical equipment for ear-nose-and-throat care; standard exam chairs, lights, tables and diagnostics; and standard health care devices such as a nerve stimulator, Otoscope Sphygmomanometer, Stethoscope, Thermometer with probe covers and Tympanometer.

Clearly, medical equipment auctions for these kinds of apparatus give medical professionals several advantages. They can obtain good quality used medical gear or sell inactive equipment, saving thousands of dollars in either transaction. In addition, multiple use of expensive health care equipment helps health care professionals reduce the waste in modern health care processes, cutting back on its environmental impacts.

MedBay Inc. is offering two grand opening specials to introduce its new service to clients: free advertising for hospitals and other health care providers, and unlimited item listings for new registered users, both through Oct. 1, 2009.
