Medical equipment maintenance involves a series of activities aimed at ensuring that medical devices remain operational. Regular maintenance and calibration are essential to ensure the accuracy and effectiveness of medical equipment.
In the medical equipment maintenance sector, the main types of services are preventive maintenance, corrective maintenance, and operational maintenance. Preventive maintenance involves regularly scheduled maintenance to keep equipment functioning optimally and prevent unexpected breakdowns. Corrective maintenance addresses issues that arise unexpectedly, while operational maintenance focuses on maintaining equipment functionality during regular use. These services can be provided by multi-vendor original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), single-vendor OEMs, independent service organizations, or in-house maintenance teams. They cover various medical devices such as imaging equipment, endoscopic devices, surgical instruments, and electro-medical equipment and are utilized in hospitals, diagnostic imaging centers, dialysis centers, ambulatory surgical centers, dental clinics, and specialty clinics.

The medical equipment maintenance market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $40.56 billion in 2024 to $45.36 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increased equipment complexity, rise in healthcare spending, focus on preventive maintenance, specialized service providers, quality and patient safety concerns.
The medical equipment maintenance market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $71.76 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to integration of predictive analytics, ongoing training and skill development, extended equipment longevity, emphasis on patient safety and quality care, demand for specialized service providers. Major trends in the forecast period include telehealth expansion, environmental sustainability, outsourcing maintenance services, shift to preventive maintenance, remote monitoring solutions.
The growing demand for medical devices is significantly driving the expansion of the medical equipment maintenance market. Medical devices include instruments, machines, and apparatus used for medical purposes to prevent, diagnose, or treat diseases. As the demand for these devices rises, effective maintenance services become essential to reduce dispatch costs, enhance patient satisfaction, ensure timely treatment, and minimize risks and fatalities during patient care. For example, Invest India, a national investment promotion and facilitation agency in India, reports that the Indian medical devices market is currently valued at around $11 billion and is projected to grow to $50 billion by 2025. Thus, the increasing demand for medical devices is expected to propel the growth of the medical equipment maintenance market in the coming years.
The increasing healthcare expenditure is anticipated to drive the growth of the medical equipment maintenance market in the future. Healthcare expenditure encompasses the total funds allocated to healthcare and related activities, including both private and public health insurance, health research, and public health initiatives. Rising healthcare spending, along with the prevalence of diseases and a growing geriatric population, is fueling the demand for medical equipment maintenance services. As healthcare providers invest in advanced medical technologies, the need for maintenance services becomes more critical. For example, a report from the Office for National Statistics, a UK-based government department, indicated that healthcare spending in the UK rose by 5.6% between 2022 and 2023, compared to a mere 0.9% growth in 2022. In 2023, the UK healthcare expenditure was approximately $317.63 billion (£292 billion). Thus, the increasing healthcare expenditure is a key driver of growth for the medical equipment maintenance market.
