Maximizing Medical Equipment Value for Buyers and Sellers
Transparent Marketplace
Transparency means you’re getting the best value in a transaction, whether you’re buying or selling. We make all offers, purchase and sale details–and the entire process–completely clear as you’re in control at all times.
No surprises. No dishonesty. No Value Lost-Only Value Gained.
GREATER SALES VALUE
Using Lucid’s transparent marketplace, hospitals, healthcare facilities and leasing companies can sell equipment in an open market where the higher demand naturally increases the value of the sale.
What are the benefits?
- You understand the true value of the sale throughout the entire process
- All offers come directly to you, and you choose the offer you like best
- Lucid manages the deal to a close once an offer is accepted
- Lucid only takes a pre-agreed-upon commission
SAFER, SMARTER PURCHASES
All too often, those looking to buy medical equipment don’t have access to either the machine itself or to information critical to understanding the machine. Is the machine damaged? Are the parts used or new? Will the machine be as advertised upon inspection? We understand the difficulties buyers have purchasing equipment and work hard to disclose all machine information and get questions answered with proof. Through our transparent system, we protect the buyer and the seller equally.
When you’re buying medical equipment through Lucid Equipment, you’re essentially dealing directly with the seller.
NO LEVERAGING
Brokers and dealers often leverage medical equipment offers in an attempt to collect a better offer. Lucid is built in a way that makes that type of behavior impossible. All offers are automatically and immediately transmitted to the seller.
NO LOSS DUE TO GREED
We take a pre-agreed-upon commission from the sale price, and the entire transaction is transparent and honest. Buyers do not lose deals because of broker greed. If a buyer places a fair offer with fair terms, it is likely the offer will be accepted.
Asset Management
Do you know the current value of your medical equipment? What about its value in two years?
When you know what your medical equipment is worth, you can make smarter, faster and more profitable purchase and sales decisions.
FOR HOSPITALS AND HEALTHCARE FACILITIES
With Lucid, it’s easy to put money back into the pocket of your hospital or healthcare facility. Lucid Equipment provides asset management services to help you determine the state of your medical equipment. We assess:
- The value of the equipment now and in the future
- Changes in technology and whether any changes would significantly affect patient outcomes
- The amount of depreciation taken on a given asset; is the hospital still collecting tax write-offs?
- The amount of money spent on service and whether the service spend is efficient
- Whether the hospital or healthcare facility is using equipment efficiently
We give you actionable data so you’ll know whether to sell equipment, keep equipment, or donate it for a tax deduction. We even facilitate donations for free. You lose the headache and gain the profit.

FOR EQUIPMENT FINANCING AND LEASING COMPANIES
Lucid minimizes risk by helping you understand everything about the equipment before you put it on lease. Our services apply to every type of medical equipment, from hospital beds to surgical and imaging equipment.
Through our transparent global marketplace, we sell medical equipment for leasing companies or facilitate re-lease equipment to a different end user.
We provide a variety of services for leasing companies, including:
- Appraisals
- Repossessions
- Future Value Analysis
- Consignment
- Lease Planning
- Lease Sourcing
FOR GROUP PURCHASING ORGANIZATIONS
The value hospitals and healthcare facilities find through our transparent, competitive marketplace and the actionable data we provide translates well to the needs of Group Purchasing Organizations.
You want to protect your members from unreasonable pricing within their supply transactions. Lucid helps you know the true value of needed resources among your members so you can maximize your purchasing power and be sure their equipment supply transactions are efficient and fair.
We give hospitals the freedom to use competition for their benefit.
Buyer Services
Competition is a tool that can be used to your benefit. Another completely transparent service, our Buyer Services program, is different from the services we offer to buyers through our transparent marketplace.
GREAT PURCHASE VALUE
Using Lucid’s Buyer Services program, hospitals and healthcare facilities can buy equipment in an open market where competition naturally lowers the cost. You tell us what you need, and we send an alert to our extensive dealer network to find the equipment you want—usually generating several purchase opportunities. Sellers know they’re competing for the sale, so you get the lowest price and the best terms.
We present all pro-forma invoices directly to the buyer. When a purchase is made, we take a pre-agreed-upon commission on the sale.
