Operational leases represent the only legally sanctioned external financing option available to the health trusts. Unfortunately, there’s a general lack of experience and competence in this area at health trusts. The realities are:
· Operational leases in health trusts are legally sanctioned
· Operational leases implemented in a system assist in better control and asset
management
· Operational leases help provide capital that permits proper access to technology
and the realisation of projects that offer a return on investment over time.
CMA has consultants available who are able to assist in preparing business cases that show in detail the value of such projects, and compare ownership and leasing as means of financing, as well as identifying the administrative benefits.
