Equipment Finance for Radiology Clinics – Get Financing Today

Equipment finance for radiology clinics uses SME lending to purchase, lease, or refinance the imaging equipment your clinic relies on day to day. Many clinics use it to fund MRI, CT, ultrasound, and X-ray systems, plus associated installation and servicing infrastructure. Instead of tying up all cash, clinics can spread the cost into monthly repayments, with lenders typically taking security in the equipment or using a hire purchase structure. Funding decisions are usually based on business affordability supported by recent accounts and evidence the equipment will be used in the clinic.

Common types of equipment finance

Hire purchase for imaging equipment

Hire purchase is often used to buy specific radiology assets with repayment over a fixed term. It is commonly available to UK limited companies or partnerships that can evidence trading and affordability, and that identify the exact equipment to be financed.

Hire purchase for imaging equipment

With hire purchase, you agree the equipment quote with the supplier and Funding Agent helps compare suitable UK providers. Lenders verify the business’s credit and trading position, confirm equipment details and value, and assess affordability for monthly repayments. Terms are commonly 36 to 84 months, with decision times often taking 3 to 14 working days. Rates are frequently structured as fixed or variable hire purchase rates, with typical UK SME equipment finance around 6.0% to 13.0% APR, depending on the deal and asset.

Leasing (asset-backed finance)

Leasing spreads the cost of imaging equipment into predictable payments while the finance provider retains ownership subject to contract terms. It is commonly suited to clinics that want cash predictability for ongoing operations.

Leasing (asset-backed finance)

After you select equipment, Funding Agent can help compare lease options with lenders that underwrite around equipment use and affordability. You provide the asset specifications, supplier details, and the lease term you need. Approval processes often run from 5 to 20 working days, influenced by appraisal and supplier documentation. Lease pricing is typically presented as a lease rate or an APR equivalent, with typical UK ranges around 7.0% to 13.5% APR depending on risk and asset value.

Refinancing existing radiology equipment

If your clinic already owns imaging equipment, refinancing can release cash or restructure repayments. It can also consolidate existing equipment-related borrowing to improve monthly affordability.

Refinancing existing radiology equipment

For refinancing, you provide equipment ownership details and any existing finance statements. Funding Agent matches you to lenders that can consider how the current asset is valued and how existing liabilities affect repayment capacity. Because lenders often need valuation and condition checks, decisions commonly take 10 to 25 working days. Typical refinance amounts are often in the £20,000 to £300,000 range, with terms frequently 24 to 60 months. Pricing can be higher than new asset finance for some clinics, with typical UK ranges around 6.5% to 14.5% APR.
