Prompted by Philips’ exit from the diagnostics business, Natus launches an MPR PG HST rental program.
Since Philips announced its exit from sleep diagnostics about a year ago, former Philips home sleep testing (HST) customers have contacted Natus to request a similar HST rental offering to the program Philips previously ran. Natus, which only offered HST purchase options, has now launched HST rental.
Effective January 1, 2025, Natus’ new MPR PG Rental Program is an option for facilities that would rather rent than make a capital purchase.
Natus MPR PG Rental Program Details
Facilities that are considering the purchase of five or more MPR PG Systems with SleepWorks Software version 9 or 10, Soft Senser Xpod Pulse Oximeters, and Disposable XactTrace Belts are eligible for a Natus Rental Program instead, billed quarterly, for a term of two years. Renewal is available before expiration.
The rental program includes coverage for service parts, as well as Natus’ technical phone support. Participation requires a commitment to buy consumables through Natus (~$12 per study).
