Amerinet awards remanufactured equipment contract to MECS

A new, three-year contract grants Amerinet Inc. members access to MECS Inc.'s range of remanufactured diagnostic imaging systems.

The two companies recently inked an agreement to allow individual facilities and integrated delivery networks access to the MECS line of remanufactured mobile x-ray, C-arms, R&F systems, mammography, and CT scanners. It also provides an asset management component for the remanufacture and upgrade of existing mobile x-ray, C-arm systems, and CTs for redeployment within individual organizations.
