PITTSBURGH, Aug. 29, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — TeleTracking
Technologies, Inc. in association with its real-time locating
system division, TeleTracking RTLS,
today released a white paper underscoring the top 10 reasons why
RTLS location accuracy in healthcare matters. The new
whitepaper, Real-Time Locating Systems (RTLS) Location Accuracy
and Its Affect on Hospital ROI, describes a variety of
healthcare use cases for RTLS where the full return on investment
depends on a more specific level of locating accuracy than ever
before.
The described RTLS use cases involve asset management, patient
tracking and staff locating applications in hospitals. While
most healthcare process improvement experts agree that patient
tracking and staff locating applications demand this high level of
positioning accuracy, there has been some question about how that
relates to asset management/equipment tracking applications in
hospitals. The white paper specifically addresses why RTLS
location accuracy is critical, even for RTLS asset management and
includes RTLS in healthcare value discussions in the following
areas:
- Staff Utilization and Satisfaction
- Asset Tracking versus Asset Management
- Maximizing RTLS Financial Return on Investment
- Equipment Theft and Loss Reduction
- Increasing Equipment Utilization
- Management of Equipment Par Levels
- Management and Reduction of Rental Equipment Needs
- Asset Management Challenges in the Operating Room (OR)
- Patient Safety Uses, including Improving Order to Care Delivery
Time - RTLS Uses with Patient Billing Reconciliation
