Buying a Mobile Clinic: Three Options
Your organization has decided to launch a mobile healthcare (medical or dental) outreach program to serve local and/or statewide communities. A grant application is due, or you've already been awarded funding. In purchasing a mobile unit, following are three basic options to consider:
#1. Contract with a manufacturer to
build an all-brand new mobile clinic
... with a new chassis and new interior customized to your clinic floor plan requirements. Generally, this option takes 6-9 months. Average quotes can range $250-350K depending on required equipment (medical or dental), size of vehicle, gas or diesel engine, and added features such as bathroom, WCL, or slide-outs.
#2. Contract with a manufacturer to
build a hybrid mobile clinic
... converting a used chassis (of recent vintage and low mileage) and building a new interior customized to your clinic floor plan requirements. This option generally takes 3-4 months. Average quotes can range $160-225K depending on the available chassis (gas or diesel), extent of interior modifications, required equipment (medical or dental), and added features such as bathroom, WCL, or slide-outs.
#3.
Purchase a pre-owned/used mobile clinic
(medical, dental, or specialty care) being sold by a healthcare organization, health corporation, or private practice. Available immediately, pending mechanical and equipment inspections. Average costs can range $75-125K depending on vehicle age, mileage, and overall condition of the vehicle and equipment.
