Great experience. Joe was super helpful. Got my appraisal in just a couple days and it was very detailed. Will definitely be using this company again!

After researching several companies, I contacted AppraiseItNow for a personal medical equipment appraisal - they responded to me within a day and were both professional and patient throughout the process!

They did an appraisal of medical equipment for donation. They did it quickly, and I received a blank form 8283 signed by the appraiser. It was what I needed. AppraiseItNow was very responsive and communicative. I would use them again!

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about medical equipment appraisals

How is fair market value of medical equipment determined?

Fair market value of medical equipment is determined by analyzing the asset’s age, condition, remaining useful life, original cost, and current market demand. Appraisers also review recent sales of comparable medical equipment in the secondary market and adjust for factors such as technology obsolescence, regulatory requirements, and functional utility. The goal is to estimate the price at which the equipment would change hands between a willing buyer and seller, with neither under compulsion and both having reasonable knowledge of the market.

What are the three types of appraisals (or valuation approaches)?

The three primary appraisal approaches are the cost approach, market approach, and income approach. The cost approach estimates value based on replacement cost minus depreciation. The market approach relies on recent sales of comparable equipment. The income approach considers the income the asset can generate, though it is less commonly applied to individual medical equipment. The appropriate approach depends on the asset type and intended use of the appraisal.

How much does a medical equipment appraisal cost?

Medical equipment appraisal costs are scope-based and depend on the number of assets, equipment complexity, intended use, and whether an on-site inspection is required. Single-item medical equipment appraisals typically start between $295 and $395, while small groups of medical equipment or mixed equipment sets often range from $995 to $2,200. Larger inventories of 50 or more items—commonly involving hospitals, imaging centers, or in-person inspections—generally range from $5,000 to $10,000+. Final pricing is provided as a fixed fee after reviewing the asset details to ensure the appraisal is properly scoped and USPAP-compliant. Learn more about medical equipment appraisal costs.

How can I find out what my medical equipment is worth?

To determine what medical equipment is worth, a qualified appraiser evaluates the equipment’s physical condition, age, usage, maintenance history, and current market activity. This includes reviewing resale data, auction results, dealer listings, and replacement costs. While online listings can provide rough context, a professional appraisal provides a defensible value supported by market evidence and appropriate valuation methodology.

How long does a medical equipment appraisal take?

Most medical equipment appraisals are completed within a few business days once all required information is received. Larger facilities, complex asset groups, or on-site inspections may take longer. Timelines depend on asset volume, documentation availability, and appraisal purpose.

Are AppraiseItNow's medical equipment appraisals USPAP-compliant?

Yes. Medical equipment appraisals are prepared in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) when required. USPAP compliance ensures the appraisal follows recognized professional standards and is suitable for use by insurers, lenders, auditors, attorneys, and other third parties.
