Allowing our technicians to rebuild or remanufacture your surgical equipment generally means significant repair and capital budget reductions for your hospital or surgery center.

One rigid endoscope (lens) standard rebuild – 30% cost reduction.

One rigid endoscope (arthroscope, cystoscope, laparoscope, hysteroscope) broken in half or crushed – over 50% cost reduction.

One semi-rigid ureteroscope – standard repair- 40% cost reduction, broken in half – over 60% cost reduction.

Any and all surgical instruments that have a replacement cost of $900 or more (e.g., kleppingers bipolar forceps, optical biopsy forceps, stone crushers, working elements, bariatric and pediatric forceps, liver retractors, arthroscopy forceps, upbiters, etc.) receive a cost reduction of $1,000 per instrument, representing an opportunity to save $100,000 on just 100 instruments.

“What if we could reduce our repair budget by 30% and our capital budget by 50%? Wouldn’t we be able to add staff, purchase new equipment and become more profitable.”

We know you need your equipment back quickly to keep the cases on schedule, so we work on your repairs with a sense of urgency.  Turnaround times vary based on the amount of damage:

• 24-48 hours for minor repairs
• 3-4 days for more severe damage or complete rebuilds
• Exception: flexible scopes and power tools with extensive damage

O.R. Solutions has a large inventory of power tools, flexible scopes, cameras, and rigid scopes that are loaned out at no charge while we’re working on your repairs. Customers are responsible for the freight from O.R. Solutions to your facility and back.  Our loaners are provided on a first request basis.

Damaged equipment (instruments, rigid or flexible scopes, power tools, cameras, etc.) is sent to our lab and evaluated by qualified technicians. Many of our existing customers pre-approve repairs which allows for the shortest tray downtime possible. For customers without a pre-approval agreement, a quotation will be provided with a breakdown of repair work required, price and estimated delivery prior to any work commencing. Your approval and purchase order allows us to complete the repair and return to you in a timely manner.

We return your equipment with a “no problem found” to your facility with no charge for our diagnostic work.

If you have asked us to evaluate an item for repair and our technical team goes through a complete evaluation to determine the time and materials and then you decline the repair, you need only pay the cost of freight to and from your facility.
