Brick, N.J.-based Nationwide Imaging Services announces that it has created Nationwide Medical Equipment Services, LLC. The new division will support the national standards for diagnostic imaging equipment sales set forth by Nationwide Imaging Services, and will now offer used imaging equipment servicing and installation through full-service or shared-risk contracts. With highly trained engineers throughout the United States, Nationwide can dispatch a professional to any location for technical assistance and support on everything from MR to X-ray machines. Nationwide Medical Equipment Services will offer service agreements, giving its clients assurance in technical support for their equipment.

Nationwide has also taken steps toward drastically expanding its warehousing and storage facilities through the renovation of its existing, newly built storage facility in Brick, N.J., which will be over 17,700 square feet after completion. This increase in warehouse and storage space will allow Nationwide to more efficiently serve its clients throughout the United States and accommodate their overseas clients by bringing all crating, staging, refurbishing and storage services in-house. With engineers strategically placed across the U.S, the de-installation process becomes much more cost effective for overseas clients. With the addition of a fleet of brand-new air ride trucks, quality assurance is guaranteed when moving equipment across the nation.

Nationwide Senior Vice President Rob Manetta saw the opportunity in growing the company’s storage facilities to increase efficiency for all clients. According to Manetta, “This expansion by Nationwide allows us to store all units and facilitate the shipping for all our equipment, which reduces cost to the customer and shortens the sales cycle. We are excited to offer a new level of value to all the companies, hospitals, and organizations we service throughout the United States.”

In addition to this expansion, Nationwide Imaging Services was recently appointed as an approved provider of Siemens Proven Excellence refurbished systems in the United States. Siemens, a leading manufacturer of diagnostic imaging equipment, chose Nationwide Imaging Services for this appointment due to their high sales volume, product knowledge, and industry respect.

Manetta is also a founding member of the International Association of Medical Equipment Remarketers and Services (IAMERS), an organization dedicated to creating a professional, secondary diagnostic imaging market by bringing together leading dealers, leassors, refurbishers, and services committed to ethics and professionalism within the industry. In addition, Manetta sits on the board of IAMERS, as well as serving as a senior advisor to the group.
