A biomedical engineer/equipment technician/technologist (BMET) or biomedical engineer/equipment specialist (BES or BMES) is typically an electro-mechanical technician or technologist who ensures that medical equipment is well-maintained, properly configured and safely functional. In healthcare environments, BMETs often work with or officiate as a clinical engineer, since there is no legal distinction between these engineers and engineering technicians/technologists.

BMETs install,inspect,maintain,repair,calibrate,modify and design biomedical equipment and support systems to adhere to medical standard guidelines. BMETs educate and advise staff and other agencies on theory of operation, physiological principles, and safe clinical application of biomedical equipment maintaining the facility’s patient care and medical staff equipment. Senior experienced BMETs perform the official part in the daily management and problem solving of healthcare technology beyond repairs and scheduled maintenance; such as,capitol asset planning,project management, budgeting and personnel management, designing interfaces and integrating medical systems,training end-users to utilize medical technology,and evaluating new devices for acquisition.
