Healthcare equipment finance

What is medical equipment finance?

Medical equipment finance is a business loan or lease that spreads the cost of practice equipment over a set term, instead of paying for it all up front. The equipment usually secures the loan, so your home and other assets are often left out of it.

It covers the equipment you treat patients with, the technology that runs the clinic and, with many lenders, the fit-out of the rooms. Banks offer it, and so do lenders that only work with health professionals. Rohan compares both as part of our wider asset and equipment finance service.

Rohan works from the RyRo office in Norwest, so practice owners across the Hills District can meet him in person, or handle it by phone and email from anywhere in Sydney.

Quick answer

Is medical equipment finance the same as a home loan for doctors?

No. Equipment finance pays for what your practice uses. A home loan for a doctor or dentist is a separate product, handled by Sumit at RyRo Loan Centre.

Dental equipment finance and more

What medical and dental equipment can you finance?

Most equipment a practice buys can be financed, new or used. These are the categories lenders see most often. Each lender sets its own rules on age, supplier and how much of a fit-out it will fund.

  • Imaging and diagnostics

    X-ray, ultrasound, OPG and CBCT units, scanners and diagnostic systems.

  • Dental chairs and units

    Chairs, delivery units, intraoral scanners, milling units and sterilisation.

  • Surgical and treatment

    Treatment tables, lasers, monitoring, anaesthetic and procedure equipment.

  • Practice fit-out

    Surgery and reception fit-outs, cabinetry, plumbing and lighting, often with the equipment.

  • IT and technology

    Practice computers, servers, screens and the hardware your software runs on.

  • Vehicles

    A car for home visits or a van for a mobile practice, financed for business use.

Medical equipment leasing or a loan

Chattel mortgage, finance lease or hire purchase?

The main questions are whether the practice wants to own the equipment and how your accountant wants it treated. Here is how the three common structures usually compare.

Chattel mortgage, finance lease and hire purchase for practice equipment
Chattel mortgageFinance leaseHire purchase
Who owns itThe practice, from day oneThe lender, during the termThe lender, until the last payment
At the endYours once paid offPay the residual, upgrade or returnOwnership passes to you
SuitsEquipment you will keepEquipment that dates quicklyOwning without a mortgage over it

General market practice. Each lender sets its own terms, and the tax treatment differs: ask your accountant.

Starting, refitting or buying

Finance for a new practice, a fit-out or a practice purchase

Each of these is assessed differently. Knowing which one you are asking for decides which lenders to approach.

  • Opening a new practice

    No trading history yet. Lenders that support new practices weigh your registration, years in the field, business plan and deposit.

    Plan finance for my new practice
  • Fitting out or refitting rooms

    A fit-out is fixed to the building, so lenders look at your lease and the practice. Some pay the builder in stages as work is done.

    Ask about fit-out finance
  • Buying into or taking over a practice

    The equipment in the sale can be financed by Rohan. The goodwill is a business acquisition loan, handled by Sumit at RyRo Loan Centre.

  • Supplier quote or invoiceWhat the equipment is, new or used, and who is selling it.
  • Bank statementsRecent business account statements, to show income and repayments.
  • Financials or tax returnsFor an established practice, usually the last one or two years.
  • Plan and lease for a new practiceA business plan or cash flow forecast, and the lease on the rooms.

Why lenders care about the supplier

Lenders want to be sure the equipment exists, is worth what you are paying and can be resold if needed. New equipment from an established supplier is the simplest. Used equipment, an overseas supplier or assets bought as part of a practice sale can still be financed by many lenders, but they may ask for a valuation, an asset list or proof of delivery first.

Tax and GST

Tax and GST on practice equipment: what to ask your accountant

The tax side depends on your practice structure, the equipment and how it is financed. We do not give tax advice. Rohan sets up the finance; your accountant confirms the tax. Ask them these questions before you sign.

  • Which structure suits your practice: own it, lease it or hire purchase
  • Whether the practice can claim GST credits on the purchase
  • How depreciation and interest are treated for your entity
  • Whether the instant asset write-off applies to any item

Medical equipment finance situations we solve

Practice owners usually come to Rohan with one of these. Here is what gets in the way, and what we do about it.

  • The supplier offered finance at the counter

    The challenge: The equipment rep has a finance offer ready to sign, but you have nothing to compare it with.

    How we handle it

    Bring the quote. Rohan compares it with other lenders and explains the residual, fees and term in plain English.

  • Equipment that dates quickly

    The challenge: Imaging or IT that will be outdated in a few years, and you do not want to be stuck owning it.

    How we handle it

    We look at lease structures with a residual, so upgrading at the end of the term is simpler.

  • Moving from employee to owner

    The challenge: You have worked in other practices for years and now want your own rooms, but your ABN is new.

    How we handle it

    We find lenders that look at your registration and experience, not only how long your ABN has been active.

  • Several items from different suppliers

    The challenge: Chairs from one supplier, imaging from another, a fit-out builder on top, all landing at different times.

    How we handle it

    We work out whether one facility or separate loans fit, and line up when each supplier gets paid.

These are common situations, not client stories. Every loan depends on your circumstances and the lender's policy.

    I engaged Ryro Finance to arrange finance for my vehicle, and the experience was excellent. They didn’t just compare car loan options—they took a holistic approach by considering my future financial goals and any upcoming asset purchases to ensure the finance structure suited my long-term plans. They provided valuable advice on the ideal deposit amount, explained the best approach to financing a vehicle, and secured one of the most competitive interest rates available to me. I would highly recommend Ryro Finance, not only for vehicle finance but for any financing requirements. Their personalised advice, professionalism, and long-term financial planning set them apart.

FAQs

Medical equipment finance FAQs

Have a question not covered here? Ask Rohan directly or book a free call.

What is medical equipment finance?

+
Medical equipment finance is a business loan or lease that pays for equipment your practice uses to treat patients or run the clinic, such as imaging, dental chairs, surgical gear, IT and fit-out. Instead of paying the full price up front, the practice repays the lender over a set term, and the equipment usually serves as the security. The common structures are a chattel mortgage, a finance lease and hire purchase. Which one fits depends on whether you want to own the equipment, your cash flow and how your accountant wants it treated.

Can I finance a medical or dental practice fit-out?

+
Often, yes. Many lenders finance surgery and office fit-outs along with the equipment that goes into them: cabinetry, plumbing for dental chairs, lighting, reception and sterilisation areas. Because a fit-out is fixed to the building and has little resale value, lenders look harder at the practice, the lease on the premises and your experience. Some lenders pay the builder in stages while the fit-out is built. Rohan checks which lenders take fit-out on its own and which want it bundled with equipment.

Can I get equipment finance for a new practice?

+
Many lenders support health professionals opening their first practice, even without trading history, because they weigh your registration, your years working in the field and your plans for the clinic. Expect to be asked for your AHPRA or other registration, a business plan or cash flow forecast, quotes for the equipment and fit-out, and the lease on the premises. A deposit or other assets can widen your choice of lender. Rohan tells you what each lender needs before anything is lodged.

Is a chattel mortgage or a finance lease better for medical equipment?

+
It depends on whether the practice wants to own the equipment and how your accountant prefers it treated. With a chattel mortgage, the practice owns the equipment from day one and the lender holds security over it. With a finance lease, the lender owns it and the practice pays to use it, with a residual at the end. Equipment that dates quickly, like some imaging or IT, can suit a lease. We recommend consulting your accountant for advice specific to your situation before you choose.

Can I finance used or refurbished medical equipment?

+
Many lenders finance used and refurbished equipment, within their own rules on the age of the asset, who is selling it and its expected life. Older equipment can mean a shorter term. A private sale, or equipment bought as part of taking over a practice, usually needs an invoice, a valuation or a list of the assets. Tell Rohan what the equipment is and where it is coming from, and he will check which lenders accept it.

Can I finance equipment bought from an overseas supplier?

+
Sometimes. Some lenders will pay an overseas supplier or fund a deposit before the equipment ships, while others only pay once it is delivered and installed in Australia. Currency, shipping and installation costs also affect how much the lender will cover. Raise it early so the finance is approved before you commit to the supplier.

What documents do I need for medical equipment finance?

+
It depends on the lender and the size of the loan. Commonly requested items are your ABN and business details, your professional registration, photo ID, the supplier quote or invoice, recent business bank statements, and tax returns or financial statements for an established practice. A new practice may be asked for a business plan or cash flow forecast and the lease on the premises. Rohan gives you a list for your lender before you start, so you only gather what is needed.

Can I claim medical equipment on tax?

+
A practice may be able to claim depreciation or an immediate deduction on business equipment, and interest on the finance, depending on its structure and how the equipment is financed. The ATO also runs an instant asset write-off for eligible small businesses, with limits that have changed many times. We do not give tax advice. We recommend consulting your accountant for advice specific to your situation, ideally before you sign the finance.

How hard is it to get equipment finance for a health practice?

+
For an established practice with steady income it is often straightforward, and some lenders focus on medical, dental and veterinary practices. It gets harder when the practice is new, the equipment is specialised or hard to resell, a fit-out makes up most of the loan, or your credit file has issues. Matching the deal to a lender whose policy already fits is what makes the difference, and it saves you applying to lenders that would say no.

Does using a broker cost more than going to my bank?

+
A broker is usually paid a commission by the lender when a loan settles, and any fee you would pay is disclosed to you before you go ahead. Your bank can only offer its own products, while Rohan compares a panel of lenders, including banks and lenders that focus on health professionals. Ask him to explain how he is paid on your deal before you sign anything.
