Certified pre-owned instruments: a smart alternative

Pre-owned instruments as a cost reduction strategy
Beyond remanufacturing, certified pre-owned robotic instruments offer another opportunity for hospitals to reduce costs. These are instruments that still have remaining uses available and have been inspected and verified before resale.
Hospitals purchasing certified pre-owned instruments can save 25% or more per use compared to buying new OEM instruments. For high-volume robotic surgery programs, these savings add up quickly across hundreds of procedures each year.
Rocuvex Medical provides access to a curated inventory of certified pre-owned Da Vinci Xi instruments, ensuring hospitals have a reliable supply at competitive pricing.
What to look for in certified pre-owned inventory
Not all pre-owned instruments are equal. Hospitals should work with suppliers who verify remaining use counts, conduct thorough inspections, and provide documentation of instrument history before purchase.
Rocuvex partners with trusted sources to ensure every pre-owned instrument in our inventory meets strict quality and safety standards. Our regional support team assists procurement teams throughout the evaluation and purchasing process.
