Partnering with Philips to enhance your investment and expand your capabilities

    take the smartpath

    Find out about SmartPath and our commitment to your long-term success.

    Never before has imaging changed so rapidly. New technology and procedures are released often and it’s hard to stay current. It’s a challenge to adapt your imaging systems of today to the innovations of tomorrow.

     

    At Philips Healthcare, we collaborate with you in the long-range planning of your medical imaging needs. With Philips SmartPath you can optimize, enhance, or transform your existing equipment so you have “like new” functionality. You gain the most advanced enhancements in workflow, dose management, and imaging quality with the equipment you already own. Your system adapts to future innovations that you couldn’t have foreseen when you made your original investment.

     

    Philips SmartPath is a partnership program that helps you extend the life of your equipment. You get the latest technology for a fraction of the cost or disruption of buying and installing new.

     

    What is SmartPath?

     

    SmartPath is an economical way to enhance your existing Philips systems to current technology or increased capacities. We upgrade key components so that your system is like new. This extends the life of your old system and enables your institution to be more competitive, comparable to buying new.

     

    This partnership program is available to Philips customers. Current customers use it to upgrade their systems while future customers use it as part of their capital investment planning.

Alternately, we can buy your system and lease it back to you with the latest upgrades included. And if you want to replace your equipment with a new system, you can trade in your old system at attractive terms.


    Our local financing experts offer tailor-made financing solutions to meet your individual upgrade requirements.
