the same can be cla imed from the Insurance Provider .
6I(2). COMMISSIONING AND ACCEPTANCE OF THE EQUIPMENT :
The competent authority should ensure insta l la t ion and commissioning of the
equipment by m a nufa cturer/supplier. The process sh ould be monitored by in-house t echn ical
sta f f so that any technical matters can be noted and recorded in the Maintenance
Register (An nexur e- II ). This occasion also provides an excellent opportunity for in-
house technical sta f f to gain familiar i ty with the new item and i ts operat ion. Ideally,
in-house technical staff should also attend the operator’s training session.
I t i s par t icu lar ly impor tant to bear in mind tha t normal ly the manufac turer/
supplier ’s warranty star ts the day equipment is insta l led in the hospita l . I f equipment
is not going to be used for some time after delivery, special arrangements must be made
with the supplier to define the warranty period. Such an agreement should preferably
be made in the purchase order. Final Acceptance Certificate (FAC) to the supplier
should not be issued before the satisfactory performance has been confirmed by the in-
house technical staff .
Rega rding equipment w ith Turnkey project like CT/MRI Sca nner, CS SD etc., t he
deta ils will be ha nded over by th e agency to th e store ma na ger or Medica l Superintendent
or authorized person in the presence of Head of the Department and in-house staff .
6I(3). MONITORING OF USE AND PERFORMANCE:
I t i s impor tant tha t user should make a sa fe use o f the equipment and a lso
continuously monitor the performance of the equipment. User should also keep a direct
link w ith ma nuf a ctur e/supplier/service provider a nd observe a ny s upplier’s techn ical
services. Such services should be recorded in the Maintenance Register (An nexur e– I I ).This will also provide a good learning opportunity for the in-house user.
Ma ny equipment w il l require da ily/w eekly inspect ion a nd simple maint enan ce.
This t ype of ma int ena nce is vita l for t he cont inuous, safe, effective and reliable opera tion
of medical equipment so as to get accurate and reliable results.

6I(5). Equipment Audit
Eq uipment a udit is a periodic evalua tion system to measure th e qua lity of performan ceof th e medical equipments.
At a ny given point of t ime, a substa nt ia l number of equipment in the hospita l ma y
be non-functional. The reasons for the same could be:
1. Wa n t of Min or r epa ir s
2. L a ck of P r ev en t iv e M a in t en a n ce
3. L a ck of cor rect iv e M a in t en a n ce
4. L a ck of es sen tia l S pa r es
5. E lect rica l F ault s
6. U n f a v or a b le en v ir on m en t a l con d it i on s
7 . Mishandl ing of equ ipment by unt r a ined and unski lled manpower
8 . P urchase of equ ipment w i thou t jus t if iab le demand et c.
9 . Fa l se Repor t ing, Wi ll fu l Dama ge and Overuse than r a t ed
For this, there is a need for periodic evaluation of the quality of performance of the
equipment in a hospita l . I f such an audit is performed, i t wil l be an advantage to a l l
ESI Hospita ls so that not only bet ter ut i l izat ion of medical equipment is ensured butalso it contributes to the improvement in the quality of health care to beneficiaries and
judicious use of resources.
The E quipment Audit sh ould be done by a commit tee (E quipment Audit C ommitt ee)
at Hospita l Level on half yearly basis .
The Equipment Audit Committee should consist of:
1. The Medica l Superintendent/designa ted medical off icer of the hospita l
2. Th e h ea d of t h e con cer n ed d epa r t m en t
3. H ea d of m a in t en a n ce (I f P os t ed )

Focus of the Audit is to:
1. C heck the cur rent s t a tus of the medica l equ ipment2 . Ana lys is of the records such a s B reakdown Reg is t er, P revent ive ma in tenance

3 . Ques t ion ing the user a bou t the usage and per formance of the equ ipment .
4 . Sugges t ing measures t o opt ima l ly u t i li ze the equ ipment for qua l i t y hea l th
services.
Advantages of the equipment audit are to:
Evaluate the performance and ut i l izat ion of the equipment
Provide an objective method for planning of equipment procurement in future
Analyze various inadequacies (including downtime) in the utilization of an
equipment and recommendation of remedial measures (including training to
th e users) so as t o maximize th e efficiency a nd effectiveness of the equipment .
6I(6). Training and Development
For the safety of the pat ient and the user , proper tra ining is cr i t ical for both the
user an d t he technical sta f f . Tra ining a nd educat ion is not a one-t ime a ct ivity but a
continuous process.
Tra ining ma y be:
1. I n-H ouse
2. At r ecog niz ed in st it u t ion s
1. In-House Training
