Create Transparency.
Avoid Capital Surprises. Deliver a Better Patient Experience.

If you’re here, you probably don’t have full visibility into your equipment — what you have, where it’s at, what it’s worth, or how and when to replace it. You’re not alone. We Can Help.

We understand how frustrating it is to make capital decisions without knowing exactly what you own.

Reactive decisions happen after failure – not before

In A World Of Tight Budgets, Every Capital Decision Matters.

THE SOLUTION

The MERC Field-First Strategy

When your equipment data reflects reality, surprises and reactionary decisions decrease. Capital requests align with data, making them proactive – which saves you money.

This is why we created the MERC Field-First Strategy — a proven framework designs to capture accurate inventory data, defensible valuations, and real-time analytics and insights inside your facilities.

We don’t rely on dated spreadsheets or assumptions – we go on-site,  because data integrity matters.

Our team physically inventories and assesses equipment in coordination with your staff. We integrate into your schedule, working around procedures and daily operations so patient care is never disrupted.

The result is simple: less guesswork, lower capital risk, and clarity you can stand behind in every capital decision from now on.

With the MERC Field-First Strategy, you get:

  • A complete, on-site verified equipment inventory
  • Independent, defensible equipment valuations
  • Real-time condition assessments for lifecycle planning
  • Clear replacement timelines that reduce emergency purchases

For nearly 20 years, MERC has helped Hundreds of Healthcare Facilities bring clarity to their equipment and confidence to their capital planning.

Now it’s your turn.

What our customer say about us

Our surgical facility recently had a facility wide inventory completed by MERC. We could not be more pleased with the service provided by Kyle, Wade and their team. They were professional but also very friendly. They explained the process, got to work quickly, and completed the inventory within the time frame allotted. Most importantly they were organized and did not disrupt services while moving through out every inch of our facility. If you get the opportunity to work with these gentlemen, you will have a great experience. We would not hesitate to use their services again.  Thank you Kyle, Wade and team!

Lisa Wall
Administrator Physicians Surgery Center

Working with the MERC team at Houston Physicians’ Hospital  was a truly positive experience. Their efficiency, organization, and seamless approach to evaluations were remarkable. The team’s deep knowledge of equipment and sensitivity to hospital operations allowed them to carry out their tasks almost unnoticed, ensuring minimal disruption. Their professionalism and expertise greatly contributed to the success of our project ahead of schedule. Thank You MERC!

Yvonne D’Amico, Director of Surgical Services
Houston Physicians’ Hospital

We have an excellent working relationship with MERC.  Wade, Kyle, and the team are great to work with and always deliver high quality, detailed equipment appraisals.  I can count on their professionalism and expertise, and I know that the reporting they provide is accurate.  They are communicative, friendly, consistent and an absolute pleasure to work with.

Raven Guy, Director
Tenet Healthcare

I have been working with MERC for several years and they are my go-to firm. You can always expect high quality and accurate reports that come on-time and on budget. Wade and Kyle (and the entire MERC team) are extremely professional, will work with your individual needs, and provide outstanding customer service. You can expect quick responses, a delivered product and a company who values your time and money. I highly recommend them for your equipment and consulting needs.

Michelle Schwarz, MBA
Bon Secours Mercy Health

Your team was so easy to work with, respectful of facility operations & you would never even know they were here.

Karen F. Albright, RN, BSN
Nurse Administrator

Kyle and the rest of the team at MERC have been great to work with! From the proposal stage to the final report, they were engaging and available to answer all questions as needed. They came to the center, were here for about 3 hours or so and hit all areas (even an area that I completely forgot to tell them about!). Their report was thorough and fair and they took my direction about some of our equipment into consideration when doing their final valuation. Just all around great people to work with!!

Heather Henry, CST
Administrator, SurgCenter of White Marsh, LLC

…you provided valuable direction and insights to our processes and did so in a collaborative, collegial, and reasonable manner. Without the level of detail and oversight you provided in coordination, scheduling, and tracking of our medical equipment relocation, I am certain the outcome of our relocation would have been less than successful.

Jerrod Milton
Children's Hospital Colorado

Overall, we considered this engagement a success by every metric: project goals achieved, value received, and smooth integration of the project in our daily operations. The MERC Team was always conscious and concerned with patient care, collaborative with our clinical and operational departments (Biomedical Engineering was especially pleased) and generally very good to work with. Should your hospital or healthcare organization require these types of services, I can enthusiastically recommend MERC to you based on our experience.

Chuck Campbell
Woodland Healthcare, Dignity Health

The project was a success, including the new and existing equipment component of the project. Department heads expressed their appreciation of the job that MERC did for JPS and MERC became a trusted and relied upon resource throughout the project. I was glad to have the MERC Team as part of our project and would highly recommend them for similar roles on other healthcare projects.

Paul Mumahan
JPS Health Network

They were much more than a consultant team, they became part of a successful management operation that relocated the hospital services identified in less than eleven days and maintained all services operational during the relocation.

Ron Stutes
JPS Health Network

They were efficient, polite, helpful, and very professional. The results of our assessment were sent to us very quickly. From start to finish, we had a very positive experience with Medical Equipment Resources & Consulting. They did an excellent job with our equipment inventory, assessment, and appraisal

Janell Dermer
Sterling Eye Center

I can’t tell you how beneficial it is to not only have everything tagged, but I can actually go to your inventory spreadsheet and tell the auditor where exactly in the hospital it’s located, unless of course they pick a movable object. This saves the facility and the auditor an enormous amount of time.

Johnna Farley
Dignity Health

Working with MERC was an outstanding experience. I have been in this business for 32 years and have never experienced such a level of professionalism as I did with Wade Byerly and his team! They were quick and concise and never got in the way of patient care. It was a great experience and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of Medical Equipment Resourcing and Consulting!

Gina Myers RN BSN
Siouxland Surgery Center

Very efficient and friendly!
