The $2.5M Deduction Every Practice Owner Should Know About
Section 179 Deduction for Ultrasound
What if your medical device capital expenses this year could become your most significant tax advantage?
Section 179 of the IRS tax code is a powerful financial tool that requires proactive planning to fully leverage. This provision is not a complex loophole; it is a straightforward incentive designed to empower you to deduct the full purchase price of qualifying equipment and technology—up to $2,500,000—from your 2025 gross income. This allows you to acquire mission-critical assets that improve patient care and efficiency, all while treating the investment as an immediate, tax-reducing expense. The deadline to put this powerful strategy to work for your practice is December 31.
