Felger Present "Point-of-Use Solutions in Healthcare"
Abstract:
The presentation will provide a look at the healthcare POU industry and the various technologies and options available to hospitals. Point of Use (POU) technology refers to the ability in tracking all inventory and supplies within a hospital system. Materials withdrawn from storage areas (Bins, Cabinets, Shelves) for patient use are recorded electronically by a handheld device. The information from the handheld device is transmitted to a computer which records the used items and alerts time to restock. Additionally, this information is used to keep track of the supplies used for each patient and in billing. The processes POU replaced and the benefits being realized by its use will also be discussed.
