leasing as an alternative to other forms of finance after the

Leasing could therefore be necessary in order
to make the necessary investments in medical technology, said MD
Jürgen Gerber.
André Hoppen, sales manager at VR Medico,
added: “The most modern technical equipment is indispensable, not
least because it also limits the liability of the doctor.”
By leasing the equipment, medical
professionals can stay on the cutting edge of technology while
remaining financially flexible, Hoppen said.
The lessor, which is the largest independent
company in the healthcare segment, will present its findings at the
91st Congress of the German Radiology Society in Berlin
from 12 to 15 May.
