Frequently Asked Questions
About medical equipment appraisals
Do you provide medical equipment appraisals throughout California?
Yes. Value Doctor appraises medical equipment for clients across California, including Los Angeles, San Diego, San Jose, San Francisco, Sacramento, and Fresno, as well as smaller communities statewide. Online appraisals are available anywhere in the state.
Can you appraise a California hospital or clinic without an on-site visit?
In most cases, yes. Many medical equipment appraisals are completed online using detailed asset lists, photos, serial numbers, and maintenance records. When a larger hospital or imaging inventory warrants it, our appraisers can inspect equipment in person anywhere in California.
How much does a medical equipment appraisal cost in California?
Costs are scope-based and depend on the number of assets, equipment complexity, intended use, and whether an on-site inspection is required. Single-item appraisals typically start between $295 and $395, while small groups or mixed equipment sets often range from $995 to $2,200. Larger inventories of 50 or more items generally range from $5,000 to $10,000 or more. Final pricing is provided as a fixed fee after the asset details are reviewed.
How long does a medical equipment appraisal take in California?
Turnaround varies by project and is confirmed up front once we scope the assignment. Timelines depend on asset volume, documentation availability, and the appraisal's intended use, and expedited service is available when you are working against a filing or transaction deadline.
Are your California medical equipment appraisals USPAP-compliant?
Yes. Every appraisal is prepared by machinery and equipment appraisers in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), so the report can be relied on for financing, insurance, tax reporting, and legal purposes.
