Beyond RFID: Many workflows, one platform HIMSS Pre-conference Symposium February 23, 2014

Conflict of Interest Disclosure Carola Endicott, VP, Cardinal Health Has no real or apparent conflicts of interest to report.

Learning Objectives Describe the current state Describe data capture workflows for inventory Illustrate how multiple data capture methods can be integrated into one platform

Current State Two Extremes –Lots of different systems matching workflows but no centralized platform –One legacy system designed for one workflow but used for everything

Specialty area inventory system Central stores inventory Inventory management current state 1: Multiple workflows and systems ORIS inventory module Nursing floors point of use inventory system Add-on MMIS modules CVIS inventory module Closed cabinet point of dispense system

A patchwork approach has downsides Greater cost implications for multiple systems Significant time/labor investments Imperfect system integration and lack of visibility No single repository for inventory data and analytics Clinicians in each area use different workflows

Inventory management current state 2: One Workflow for all Products

One workflow also has downsides Manual workarounds by staff Inaccurate, incomplete inventory information Higher investment in people to make up for system deficiencies Generally, only SKU level data is available for analysis Interferes with clinician focus on patients

Type of supplies Low-cost supplies like gauze and bandages Low-cost supplies that require each-level tracking Surgical packs and other mid- to high-cost supplies High-cost physician preference items and implantables Optimal tracking & data capture system 2-Bin KanbanBarcode RFID-enabled Smart Wand RFID-enabled Smart Cabinets Match the workflow to the inventory

Ultimate workflow: Usage capture close to the patient Capture usage, regardless of how the product is tracked

Many workflows feeding one platform Satisfied clinicians Accurate data Better decision-making Achieve cost savings

Beyond Inventory Management and into Supply Chain Management Hospital/ healthcare provider Patient and procedure Supplier/ manufacturer Distribution center

Beyond RFID: From Inventory Management to Supply Chain Management RFID provides control and visibility for high value supplies RFID can be leveraged beyond the inventory space and into the supply chain space The market is maturing and understanding the value of optimal workflows
