Hospital Inventory Management with RFID Offers Many Benefits

With WaveMark CIMS, hospitals can be confident that the right products are available where and when they're needed. WaveMark's use of healthcare RFID tracking technology allows staff to "see" on-hand supplies so they can eliminate stock outs and easily monitor expired and recalled products. Intelligent usage tracking provides total visibility, allowing hospitals to optimize inventory levels. WaveMark CIMS customers report an ROI of 200-300 percent—with positive returns in less than a year.


Reduce inventory levels

Through intelligent RFID hospital inventory tracking, WaveMark CIMS analyzes your actual product usage and recommends changes to your on-hand levels. Adjust target inventory levels to those suggested and move from a “just in case” inventory to a “just in time” stock level.


Efficiently track expiration dates and eliminate waste

Reports highlight short-dated products and their location, ensuring JCAHO compliance by staying ahead of expired items. Reduce waste by easily following first-in-first-out (FIFO) inventory management procedures.


Eliminate stock-outs

WaveMark CIMS has automated inventory tracking that constantly monitors your target inventory levels, making sure you never run out of critical items. Room replenishment reports keep individual procedure areas optimally stocked.


Easily manage product recalls

A simple search on the affected item lot number easily finds recalled products down to the exact room and cabinet location. The WaveMark CIMS inventory system allows you to quickly remove any recalled items before they reach your patient.


Improve workflow and nurse satisfaction

Automated tracking requires no changes to existing lab procedures and greatly improves workflow. Highly skilled nurses are confident they have what they need and are now able to spend time caring for patients and not counting boxes-dramatically improving clinician job satisfaction.


Decrease wasted product

WaveMark CIMS monitors product status in real-time, making it easy to identify those products that left the shelf, but didn't get used in a case. Activity reports display the disposition of products, including missing, open and unused or defective items.


Increase charge capture

With a simple wave, products are logged as having been used for a patient, providing accurate charge capture information.


Efficient consignment & returns

View Disposition reports to manage vendor returns and consigned product. Track items directly to the original purchase order for easy reconciliation.
