MEDICA 2019. D Day – 3. Season 1 ep #3 : You said « over-investment »?

Do you know why hospitals buy a huge number of extra assets?

Hospitals, have a lot of expensive equipment they use throughout the day, and it’s challenging to keep up with. In fact, even basic items like wheelchairs and beds can be pricey… and they never seem to be there when you need them in a hurry.

What do Hospitals do to make sure they have the right equipment handy? They buy extra assets.

The average hospital buys about 20% more inventory than they actually need or can use at one time. For a medium-sized hospital, this can mean hundreds of thousands or even millions in extra costs!

In healthcare facilities time is of the essence. Our indoor location services such as asset tracking allow staff to locate critical medical equipment immediately. It is also used to monitor inventory and reduce waste or shrinkage. These are just some of the many ways that indoor positioning services can help healthcare facilities improve the quality of care and services while keeping costs down.
