Portable and Handheld Ultrasound Financing

Rates from 5.49% APR

Qualified clinics finance handheld and cart-based ultrasound from 5.49% APR with a fixed payment across 24 to 60 months. A Butterfly, Venue Go, or Sonosite fleet stays budget-predictable for the whole term.

Equip every room as one line item

We roll every handheld probe, cart, and license into a single loan and one payment. Cover three rooms or ten, mix Butterfly handhelds with Sonosite carts, and it all lands on one simple agreement.

500+ lenders, all credit profiles

One application reaches the full US lender network. Newer urgent cares and clinics with challenged credit get funded alongside established groups. The low ticket size makes these among the easiest approvals we place.

A payment you barely notice

POCUS is inexpensive to finance and immediately useful for procedural guidance and rapid assessment. Spread across a fleet, the monthly is small enough that the clinical upside dwarfs the cost from the first week.

POCUS earns its place because it answers questions at the bedside that used to mean a referral or a wait. FAST exams, lung assessment, bladder volume, soft-tissue and abscess evaluation, DVT screening, and procedural guidance for line placement or drainage all happen faster and safer with an ultrasound in hand. In an urgent care or multi-specialty clinic, that speed is the product.

The hardware is more capable and more affordable than it was five years ago. The Butterfly iQ3 puts whole-body imaging on a single probe that plugs into a phone or tablet, ideal for procedure rooms and bedside checks. The GE Venue Go is a rugged cart-based system built for point-of-care with fast boot and simple controls. Fujifilm Sonosite is the durability benchmark: the Sonosite PX, Edge II, and LX are built to survive a busy emergency and urgent care environment. Many clinics run a blend, handhelds for reach and a cart or two for the rooms that need more image quality.

Financing is what lets you deploy across every room at once instead of buying one probe and rationing it. When the tool is always within reach, clinicians actually use it, and utilization is where the clinical and financial return both come from.

POCUS fleet deals we placed for clinics and urgent care groups across the US. Rates reflect each file and are not guaranteed offers.

• Denver, CO urgent care, 3 locations, 8 years: fleet of Fujifilm Sonosite PX and Sonosite Edge II carts, $52,000. Credit 726, 5.99% APR, 48 months, 10% down.
• Solo emergency and family physician, 5 years: Butterfly iQ3 handhelds plus a GE Venue Go cart, $18,000. Credit 698, 6.49% APR, 42 months, 10% down.
• Multi-specialty clinic, 14 years: GE Venue Go fleet across exam rooms, $60,000. Credit 758, 5.49% APR, 54 months, 10% down.
• New urgent care, 18 months open: three Butterfly iQ3 handhelds and one Sonosite cart, $11,000. Credit 705, 6.24% APR, 36 months, 10% down.

The Denver group is the one this page was built around. Three locations, one financed line item, and the monthly came in around $1,150 for the whole fleet. Their words, roughly: a payment they barely noticed for a capability they now use in every room. The direct billing plus the referrals they stopped sending out covered it fast.

The return on POCUS is part billing and part throughput. Where point-of-care exams and procedural guidance are billable, a fleet in daily use recovers its cost quickly. Just as important, ultrasound at the bedside speeds decisions, reduces unnecessary referrals and imaging, and improves the patient experience, which shows up in volume and retention rather than a single CPT line. Model both: the direct billing plus the visits you keep in-house instead of sending out.

On taxes, portable ultrasound is textbook Section 179 property. Section 179 lets you deduct the full purchase price of qualifying equipment in the year it is placed in service, with an annual cap well above $1,000,000, so an entire clinic fleet is fully deductible this year. Because financed equipment qualifies, you deduct the whole $52,000 fleet now while paying over 48 months. On a purchase this size, that first-year write-off can offset a meaningful share of the cost outright.

Confirm with your CPA how Section 179 and bonus depreciation apply to your entity. The math is friendly at this price point: modest payment, immediate clinical use, and a full first-year deduction on gear you deploy the week it arrives.

This is the simplest financing we do, because the tickets are small and the paperwork is light. Send a one-page application and your vendor quote, whether that is Butterfly, GE, Fujifilm Sonosite, or a mix. Fleets at this size sit far under our $250,000 application-only ceiling, so no tax returns and no financials.

We take the file to our 500+ US lenders and return options, usually the same business day. You choose the term, 24 to 60 months, from 5.49% APR for qualified practices. Handhelds, carts, probes, and any bundled software go on one agreement, so a three-location rollout is one payment, not nine invoices.

Because portable ultrasound is a low ticket, these approvals are among the fastest and friendliest we place, which is exactly why newer urgent cares and clinics with challenged credit do so well here. Accept the terms and the vendor is paid within a few business days so your units ship and get into rooms. When you open a fourth location or add rooms, we add to the line. One application, the whole lender network, and a fleet in service at a payment your group barely notices.

How much does it cost to finance a portable ultrasound fleet?

It scales with your mix. A few Butterfly iQ3 handhelds can start under $10,000, while a multi-room fleet of Fujifilm Sonosite PX and GE Venue Go carts runs $40,000 to $60,000. On a 48 month term from 5.49% APR, a $52,000 fleet lands near $1,210 a month across an entire urgent care group.

Should I finance handhelds or just buy them outright?

Even affordable handhelds are worth financing when you are buying several plus carts and software, because it keeps cash free and lets you deploy the whole fleet now. You also get the Section 179 deduction on the full amount while paying over time, which is hard to beat.

Can I mix Butterfly, GE, and Sonosite on one loan?

Yes. Most clinics do exactly that: Butterfly iQ3 handhelds for bedside and procedure rooms, a GE Venue Go or Fujifilm Sonosite cart for the rooms that need more, and Philips Lumify or Clarius where it fits. One vendor quote or several, we bundle it into a single agreement.

Does the Butterfly subscription or software get financed too?

The hardware and any bundled licensing or subscription that appears on the vendor quote can be included. We finance the whole package so your point-of-care program is funded end to end rather than in pieces.

We are a young urgent care with limited credit history. Can we get approved?

Very likely. Portable ultrasound is a low ticket relative to imaging suites, which makes it one of the friendliest approvals across our 500+ lenders. We fund newer urgent cares and challenged credit at this price point routinely.
