What's the secret to keeping your hospital's equipment safe, reliable, and budget-friendly? On this episode of Power Supply, we're joined by Marc Schlessinger, Principal Consultant and Investigator at ECRI, to dive into the world of capital replacement planning for medical devices. Marc breaks down the real factors that determine how long equipment actually lasts—from utilization rates and technology shifts to the "graveyard closets" of unused gear sitting in every OR—and shares how a smart 10-year plan can save hospitals from costly surprises. Whether you're managing budgets, maintaining devices, or just want to know what keeps your hospital's equipment running, this episode delivers real-world insights, actionable tips, and a few laughs along the way.

On this episode of Power Supply, we welcome back Mark Van Sumeren, Managing Director at Health Industry Advisor LLC, to explore what advisors can do to establish and improve trust within the healthcare supply chain.
