In response to price increases, out of manufacturer warranty devices, and increasing pressure to meet value-based care goals, Futura has announced the launch of FuturaCare+, a purpose-built extended warranty program designed to help healthcare organizations reduce unplanned capital expenses, stabilize operational performance, and protect critical bedside technology.

FuturaCare+ offers flat-rate, two-year coverage on out-of-warranty mobile carts—including batteries, inverters, WOWs, and key components often excluded from OEM agreements. The program includes unlimited advanced replacements, all-inclusive shipping, and a shared risk model that directly impacts clinical outcomes and financial planning.

“As hospitals face constrained capital budgets and increasing demand for operational performance, we developed FuturaCare+ as an alternative to new asset purchases—extending asset life while supporting measurable improvements in care,” said Moira Rubino, Vice President of Services & Delivery at Futura.

“A single Workstation on Wheels (WoW) failure impacts far more than just IT—it creates delays in patient care, documentation, and staff efficiency. What many don’t realize is a single WoW may support the care and documentation of five to six—or more—patients per shift. When one fails, the disruption extends across the care team—for example, slowing access to lab and imaging results, prolonging clinical decision-making, and forcing clinicians to revert to manual or delayed documentation. This can increase the time required to care for each patient by an additional 20 to 30 minutes, and the cumulative effect often contributes to an increased Length of Stay (LOS) and added strain on staffing. FuturaCare+ transforms this unplanned downtime into a controlled, Value-Based Care process that safeguards both patient care continuity and capital efficiency.”

“We’re helping health systems rethink support as a strategic function,” added Rubino. “This isn’t just warranty coverage—it’s an operational safety net that protects patient experience.”
