Envision Flat Rate R.A.P.I.D. Repair<br />
Linvatec’s Envision Flat Rate Repair program is an alternative to the standard<br />
R.A.P.I.D. program. Our Flat Rate program is designed for hospitals that still<br />
require a 24-hour placement but want a price cap on repair costs.<br />
For a flat rate, Linvatec will provide a replacement scope within 24 hours. This<br />
program keeps scope repair simple and convenient.<br />
Program Guidelines:<br />
1. Customer will sign an agreement stating they will use the Linvatec Flat<br />
Rate program and agree to have scopes only serviced by a Linvatec<br />
authorized repair facility.<br />
2. Linvatec will replace the damaged scope with a model number of equal<br />
quality using next business day delivery service. To ensure next business<br />
day delivery, Linvatec Customer Service must receive the request by 4:30<br />
p.m. EST. A Customer purchase order is required.<br />
3. An invoice at up to list price will be issued. It is your responsibility to return<br />
the damaged scope to Linvatec within fifteen (15) working days for<br />
evaluation. The returned scope will be evaluated and a credit will be issued<br />
(the difference between the invoiced price and the flat rate repair price).<br />
4. If the scope has been previously repaired by a facility other than an<br />
authorized Linvatec repair center, the warranty will be void and a credit will<br />
not be issued.<br />
For additional information, call your Sales Representative or Customer Service<br />
at 800-237-0169.<br />
Clear Repair<br />
Pay-For-Service Repair Program for Damaged Arthroscopes /Endoscopes<br />
Linvatec’s Clear Repair program is another alternative to our R.A.P.I.D.<br />
program. With Clear Repair, you will receive the same scope after it is<br />
repaired to its original specifications. All repairs are warranted in accordance<br />
with our service warranty period (refer to section Service Warranty Period).<br />
Processing a Clear Repair:<br />
1. Call your Linvatec Sales Representative or Customer Service to obtain a<br />
Return Goods number for a repair through the Clear Repair program.<br />
When you are issued your RG number, you will be advised of the location<br />
where to send your Instrument.<br />
2. Mail the damaged scope in a shipping carton provided by your<br />
Sales Representative.<br />
3. The Linvatec Repair Coordinator will present you with a quote within 24<br />
hours of receiving the damaged scope:<br />
• The repair quote is based on the repair required. Prices are estimates only.<br />
• Approval of the repair quote is required.<br />
Service Programs<br />
4. If the scope is severely damaged, you may choose between a replacement<br />
through our R.A.P.I.D. program or having the scope repaired.<br />
5. If the scope cannot be repaired, a new or refurbished scope will be offered.<br />
6. The scope is returned to you within 5-10 working days of Customer approval.<br />
For additional information, contact your local Sales Representative or<br />
Linvatec Customer Service at 800-237-0169.<br />
Loaner Program<br />
Linvatec’s loaner program is designed to minimize downtime and<br />
inconvenience when an essential product needs off-site servicing.<br />
Loaners are available for most capital products. Loaners are available at no<br />
charge during the warranty period (includes both original and extended<br />
warranty) A nominal loaner charge is associated with products not covered by<br />
a warranty.<br />
Program guidelines:<br />
1. Linvatec will strive to send the same model number as your unit but<br />
reserves the right to send a different model.<br />
2. Loaners, if available, will be sent using next business day delivery service.<br />
To ensure next business day delivery, Linvatec Customer Service must<br />
receive all loaner requests prior to 5:30 p.m. EST.<br />
3. For warranted products, Linvatec will pay freight charges out (includes<br />
both the loaner unit and the repaired unit). You are responsible for freight<br />
charges in (includes both the unit needing repair and the return shipment<br />
of the loaner unit).<br />
4. A loaner unit will be considered delinquent if any of the following<br />
conditions are met:<br />
• If the loaner is not returned within fourteen (14) calender days after<br />
shipment of your repaired Instrument<br />
• If the loaner is not returned within seven calendar (7) days after your<br />
rejection of a quoted repair price<br />
• If your Instrument needing repair is not received at Linvatec within<br />
fourteen (14) calendar days of loaner shipment<br />
5. Linvatec reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to charge non-refundable late<br />
fees and/or to charge up to full list price for any loaner product which is not<br />
returned on time or which is damaged due to customer misuse or negligence.<br />
6. Linvatec reserves the right to ask cash-in-advance and credit card<br />
customers to pay the standard repair charges and loaner fees (if applicable)<br />
prior to shipping a loaner.<br />
