SERVICE OVERVIEW
Value Doctor Appraises Medical Equipment Online Without Requiring an On-Site Visit
Value Doctor provides online medical equipment appraisal services for hospitals, healthcare systems, clinics, surgery centers, lenders, attorneys, and accounting firms nationwide. Our appraisers deliver market-supported valuations using detailed documentation, asset records, and current secondary-market data, without requiring an on-site inspection in most cases.
We appraise diagnostic imaging, surgical equipment, therapy equipment, and hospital machinery for purposes including estate planning, charitable donations, financing, insurance claims, mergers, and regulatory compliance, with USPAP-compliant reports prepared for each engagement. Dental practices are covered as well, where our dental equipment appraiser team values chairside units, panoramic and intraoral imaging, sterilization systems, and other operatory assets.
Desktop appraisals reduce disruption to your facility while maintaining the same professional standards as an on-site engagement. When asset complexity or the intended use of the report requires it, an on-site inspection can be arranged instead.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Online Medical Equipment Appraisal FAQs
What's the difference between an online and an on-site medical equipment appraisal?
An online appraisal is completed remotely from equipment documentation, photographs, and asset records, while an on-site appraisal includes a physical inspection. Both follow the same USPAP methodology and produce a defensible, written report; the online format simply removes the need for an appraiser to visit your facility.
What information do you need to complete an online appraisal?
We typically need equipment descriptions, manufacturers and models, serial numbers, acquisition dates, and any maintenance or purchase records. Clear photographs help us verify condition. This documentation lets us complete most engagements without an on-site visit.
Is an online appraisal valid for IRS filings, estate matters, or legal proceedings?
Yes. Online appraisals are prepared in accordance with USPAP and meet the same standards as an on-site report, including signed IRS Form 8283 documentation for charitable donations when applicable. They are suitable for tax filings, estate settlement, and litigation support.
When would an on-site inspection be required instead of an online appraisal?
Larger facilities, equipment in uncertain condition, or engagements where the intended use of the report calls for physical verification may require an on-site visit. We review your scope during intake and let you know if an on-site inspection is recommended.
Can dental or lab equipment be appraised online too?
Yes. Our online appraisal process covers dental operatory equipment, laboratory analyzers, and diagnostic devices in addition to imaging and surgical equipment, all appraised from documentation and photographs in most cases.
