What Is Section 179 and Why It Matters in 2025

Section 179 allows businesses to deduct the full purchase price of qualifying equipment and software placed in service during the tax year, rather than depreciating it over many years. For 2025, the maximum Section 179 deduction is $2,500,000, with the phase-out threshold starting at $4,000,000 in total equipment purchases.

Translation: You can buy or finance the equipment you need anyway—and deduct up to $2.5 million immediately while reducing your taxable income dramatically.

Medical & Laboratory Equipment That Qualifies in 2025

Virtually every piece of capital equipment used in patient care, surgery, sterilization, or research qualifies. Popular categories Auxo Medical clients are deducting right now include:

• Anesthesia machines (GE, Mindray, Dräger)
• Surgical tables & lighting (Steris/AMSCO, Skytron, Hill-Rom)
• Sterilizers & autoclaves (Steris/AMSCO, Tuttnauer, Primus)
• Ultrasound machines (GE, Philips, Siemens)
• Patient monitors & vital signs monitors
• Electrosurgical units & smoke evacuators
• Endoscopy/scopes & processing equipment
• Laboratory equipment (centrifuges, microscopes, incubators)
• Biomedical & infusion pumps
• Blanket & fluid warmers
• Stretchers, exam tables, and procedure chairs

Both new and refurbished equipment qualify equally under Section 179—the IRS makes no distinction as long as it’s placed into service in 2025.

Why Auxo Medical Is the Smart Choice for Section 179 Purchases

1. Largest Inventory of Refurbished Name-Brand Equipment
   Auxo maintains over 1,000 pieces of fully refurbished equipment from every major manufacturer—Steris, GE, Skytron, Mindray, Hill-Rom, Philips, Dräger, and more. You’re not limited to whatever happens to be in stock at the OEM.
2. Up to 70% Below OEM Pricing
   Identical or better clinical performance at a fraction of the cost means you can acquire more equipment within the $2.5M deduction limit.
3. Same-as-New Warranty & Certification
   Every piece undergoes a rigorous inspection and refurbishment process. You receive a full parts & labor warranty—typically 6 months to multi-year depending on the item.
4. Immediate Availability & Fast Delivery
   Select equipment ships within days, not months. Perfect for hitting the December 31, 2025 “placed in service” deadline.
5. Financing That Preserves Your Deduction
   Equipment financed through Section 179-qualified leasing or loans still qualifies for the full deduction in 2025.

Act Before December 31, 2025

The equipment must be purchased (or financed) and placed into service by midnight on December 31, 2025 to claim the full 2025 deduction.

Spending Caps and Phase-Out Thresholds

While the deduction limit has increased, it is important to be aware of the overall spending cap on qualifying equipment. The total amount of equipment purchased that can be fully deducted is $4,000,000. Once your total qualifying equipment purchases exceed this threshold, the deduction starts to phase out dollar-for-dollar.

This means that if your equipment purchases surpass $4 million, your deductible amount will reduce proportionally, emphasizing the importance of planning your investments within the deduction limits to maximize savings.

The Advantage of Immediate Deduction

One of the most attractive features of Section 179 is the ability to immediately expense the full cost of equipment, rather than spreading deductions over multiple years through depreciation. This benefit translates into substantial tax savings in the current fiscal year, freeing up capital for further investments or operational needs.

Use of the Section 179 Tax Calculator

To help businesses estimate potential savings, Auxo Medical recommends utilizing Ascentium Capital’s Section 179 Tax Calculator. This online tool provides an estimate of how much a healthcare practice or business could save by leveraging this tax advantage based on specific purchase amounts and financing options.
