As medical standards continue to improve, the use of medical consumables has increased significantly year by year. Management using barcodes and other automatic identification technologies has become a common practice. Information is labeled and identified—including medications, biochemical specimens, medical equipment, healthcare staff, and patient identities—and core business process data is collected through smart mobile terminals, which communicate with Hospital Information Systems (HIS) and Clinical Information Systems (CIS).
The use of barcode technology offers the following advantages:
Easy to create barcodes with low cost
Reliable and accurate
Fast information capture
Capable of collecting large volumes of data in a short time
Improves efficiency and reduces error rates
The following scanners are particularly well suited for the healthcare industry.
