Facility-specific plans

Six service routes with different staffing and response assumptions

Hospital Service Plan

24×7 triage, on-site FSE windows for capital platforms, spare-parts staging for high-utilization beds and monitors, and quarterly uptime reviews with MTBF / MTTR reporting.

  • Remote diagnostics where cybersecurity policy allows
  • Biomed competency refresh for scale and siderail systems
  • PMS complaint intake coordination

Ambulatory Surgical Center Plan

Procedure-day priority response, stretcher and light-capital coverage, and rapid swap logistics sized for ASC inventory—not tertiary warehouse depth.

  • Same-day parts courier targets for critical SKUs
  • Staff in-service before first case day
  • Infection-control wipe-down guidance per IFU

Imaging & Procedure Suite Plan

For endoscopy towers and procedure-adjacent capital: preventive maintenance calendars, EMC recheck after upgrades, and DICOM / HL7 regression checks after software updates.

  • Software update windows with rollback notes
  • Cybersecurity SBOM and patch cadence disclosure
  • Calibration certificate archive

Specialty Clinic Plan

Lean coverage for clinics with limited biomed staff: phone-first triage, scheduled visits, and loaner pathways for monitoring and rehab equipment.

  • Business-hours SLA with after-hours escalation path
  • Competency checklists for clinic nursing teams
  • UDI receiving worksheets

Home Health Plan

Field logistics for Stryker hospital beds, patient lifts, and home monitoring kits—including caregiver usability coaching and battery lifecycle replacement schedules.

  • Depot repair with delivery coordination
  • Battery cycle tracking for powered equipment
  • Home-environment risk checklist

Skilled Nursing Plan

Fleet-level bed and monitoring support with preventive rounds, fall-prevention accessory checks, and documentation packs for survey readiness.

  • Quarterly fleet inspection reports
  • Exit-alarm and siderail function sampling
  • Training for night-shift caregivers

Service FAQ

Questions value analysis teams ask first

Uptime is calculated against the contracted coverage window and excludes customer-caused delays, third-party network outages, and consumable stockouts. Ask for the written definition in the service schedule.

MTTR should cite the failure class, parts availability class, travel radius, and measurement period. A single nationwide average without those conditions is not decision-ready.

Yes—competency agendas cover preventive tasks, safety checks, software rollback, and escalation. Training does not substitute for manufacturer-authorized repairs when the IFU requires them.

Reusable pathways add reprocessing validation, cycle counting, and inspection labor. Single-use pathways shift cost to supply continuity and waste handling. Compare both with infection prevention and sustainability stakeholders present.

Before structured service

  • Ad-hoc break/fix tickets with unclear ownership
  • Parts delays discovered only during downtime
  • Training limited to go-live week
  • No shared MTBF / MTTR dashboard

After a facility-fit plan

  • Named triage path and coverage windows
  • Staged critical spares by utilization class
  • Competency refresh tied to software revisions
  • Quarterly uptime and complaint trend review
