Refurbished equipment that's truly patient-ready
reLink Certified devices go through standardized testing, inspection, and certification before they ship — so you extend your budget without taking on risk. Patient-ready isn't a label here; it's a documented process.
How our vendor partners certify every device
Certification is carried out by our trusted vendor partners through a documented sequence — not a coat of paint. Here's what every device goes through before it's cleared for clinical use.
Intake & inspection
Each device is logged, barcoded, and inspected on arrival. Cosmetic and functional condition is assessed and recorded.
Barcoded & trackedService to specification
Worn or failing components are repaired or replaced and the device is serviced to manufacturer specification.
OEM-spec serviceFunctional & safety testing
The device is functionally tested and, where applicable, electrically safety tested against spec — with results documented.
Tested to specCertification & documentation
Once it passes, the device is certified patient-ready with documentation your biomed team can file.
Documented patient-readyWarranty & ship
Certified devices ship under warranty, ready for immediate clinical use.
Warranty-backedPerformance that protects capital
Capital budgets are finite; clinical demand isn't. reLink Certified refurbished equipment gives you dependable, patient-ready devices at a fraction of new — without the uncertainty that makes people nervous about "used."
Extend the budget
Access the equipment you need at a meaningful discount to new — freeing capital for where it's needed most.
Standardized testing
Every device follows the same inspection and testing process. Consistency is what makes "certified" mean something.
Lower risk
Documented testing plus warranty coverage means refurbished doesn't mean rolling the dice.
Built around the people who stake their name on it
Certified means different reassurance to each team. Here's what each gets.
Documentation you can file
Every certified device returns with test records, not just a clean exterior. The paperwork supports your asset and compliance files from day one.
Capital stretched further
Certified refurbished delivers a tested, patient-ready device at a meaningful discount to new — freeing capital without taking on the risk of 'as-is' equipment.
Confidence at the bedside
Patient-ready isn't a label here. It's a documented state: serviced to spec, tested, and warranty-backed, so the device performs when it matters.
Certified means audit-ready
A reLink Certified device arrives with the documentation to back up its condition — the difference between "we think it's fine" and "here's the record."

For these common situations, certified refurbished is the smarter buy.
The budget won't cover new
Clinical demand is real but the capital isn't there for new. A certified device meets the need at a fraction of the cost, tested and patient-ready.
A fraction of newYou need it faster than new can ship
New equipment can carry long lead times. Certified inventory that's already been through the process can often move faster.
Often faster than newYou're filling out an existing fleet
Adding units to a model you already run keeps training and parts consistent — certified refurbished lets you do it affordably.
Consistent with your fleetYou've been burned by 'as-is' before
An auction or as-is unit arrived untested and became a problem. Certified means a documented process and a warranty stand behind it.
Documented, not a gambleNot all "refurbished" is equal
The word "refurbished" is used loosely across the market. What protects you is a documented, repeatable certification process.

Refurbished equipment, answered
What does "reLink Certified" mean?
It means the device has gone through a standardized process — intake inspection, service to manufacturer specification, functional and electrical safety testing where applicable, and documentation — before being cleared as patient-ready and shipped under warranty.
Is refurbished equipment safe for patient use?
Yes, when it's certified through a documented process. Every reLink Certified device is tested against specification and documented before return. reLink Medical operates under an ISO 9001:2015 certified quality system.
How much can I save versus new?
Refurbished equipment is typically available at a meaningful discount to new. The exact savings depend on the device, age, and configuration — an equipment specialist can give you specifics for what you need.
Does certified equipment come with a warranty?
Yes. reLink Certified devices ship under warranty. That coverage, combined with documented testing, is what separates certified from "as-is" equipment sold without recourse.
Can recovered value or reLink360® credits offset a refurbished purchase?
Yes. Value recovered through reLink programs can be applied toward future equipment needs, including certified refurbished purchases. Ask your specialist how recovered value and credits can offset the cost.
Can I mix new and refurbished in one order?
Absolutely. Many providers do exactly that — new where it's required, certified refurbished where it makes budget sense. We'll recommend the mix that fits your clinical and financial needs.
What is the difference between certified and used?
Used equipment may be sold as-is. reLink Certified means a standardized process — inspection, service to spec, testing, documentation — and a warranty. Certified is verified; as-is is not.
Which device types do you certify?
Certification spans the categories providers buy most — monitoring, infusion, and imaging-adjacent equipment among them. Confirm a specific model with a specialist.
Can I mix certified and new in one order?
Yes. Many providers buy new where it's required and certified where it makes budget sense, planned together as one order.
Is certified equipment available nationwide?
Yes. reLink's six hubs and national logistics network deliver certified equipment to providers across the country.
Does certified equipment include accessories?
Included accessories are listed with each device. If something specific is needed, confirm it with a specialist before ordering so the unit arrives complete.
