Problem
Health systems often purchase duplicate high-cost medical equipment that remains idle for most of the time, leading to unnecessary capital expenditures, high rental costs, and limited access to essential devices across facilities.
Solution
Cohealo provides a data-driven platform that tracks equipment utilization across a health system, identifies idle assets, and facilitates their sharing between hospitals. By integrating lightweight EMR data exports and custom business logic, the platform automatically schedules equipment, logs usage, and coordinates logistics for transport. The system offers real-time visibility into equipment availability by facility, service line, and provider, enabling OR directors and finance teams to make informed capital planning decisions. Through collaborative purchasing and shared ownership, health systems can reduce redundant purchases, achieve a 3‑5× return on capital budgets, and expand service lines without additional capital outlay. All logistics, including specialty crating and moving, are managed by Cohealo’s dedicated operations team, ensuring seamless, risk‑controlled equipment mobilization.
