Asset Governance in Healthcare
Healthcare organisations — from NHS trusts and private hospitals to GP surgeries, dental practices, and care homes — manage a vast array of clinical, diagnostic, and operational assets. Asset governance is not only a financial imperative but a patient safety and regulatory compliance requirement. Equipment must be tracked, serviced, and certified to exacting standards. Missing or poorly maintained assets can directly impact care quality and CQC inspection outcomes.
Example Assets
| Asset | Approx. Value | Ownership | Location | Insurance Consideration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Diagnostic Imaging Equipment (MRI, X-Ray, Ultrasound) | £50,000–£3,000,000 | Radiology / Biomedical Engineering | Fixed in clinical departments | Specialist medical equipment cover – accurate values critical for replacement |
| Patient Monitoring & Life Support Equipment | £2,000–£100,000 | Clinical / Biomedical Engineering | Wards, theatres, ICU | Medical equipment policy – service certification must be linked to asset record |
| Surgical Instruments & Theatre Equipment | £500–£50,000 | Theatre Manager / Sterile Services | Theatres and CSSD | Contents / medical equipment – sterilisation cycles rarely tied to asset ID |
| Mobility & Patient Handling Equipment | £500–£10,000 | Ward Manager / Physiotherapy | Wards, community settings | Equipment cover – high loss rate in community settings |
| IT & Digital Health Equipment | £500–£5,000 | IT Department | Across all clinical and admin areas | IT cover – NHS estates often have thousands of unregistered devices |
