WaveMark, a leading provider of real-time inventory management solutions for high value medical products, and Noblis, provider of the RASMAS recall management solution, announce an agreement to offer supply-chain and patient safety service interoperability that provides the most immediate, automated, and documented recall capability for medical devices on the market today. The integrated solution of RFID enabled supply chain and recall management enables healthcare providers to reach a new standard in patient safety.
"We are passionate about delivering solutions that uphold our commitment to patient safety and streamlining the healthcare supply chain," said John Wass, CEO, WaveMark. "By interfacing the RASMAS proven alert management solution with WaveMark CIMS, we provide an additional means for today's hospitals and healthcare organizations to better manage their recall process and ultimately improve patient safety."
With a commitment to stream-line healthcare processes, reduce errors, decrease costs, and improve patient safety, WaveMark and Noblis are collaborating to deliver.
- Real-time identification and location of recalled products: WaveMark CIMS uses RFID and network technologies to automate the management and tracking of high-value hospital inventory and RASMAS delivers and manages electronic product alerts. Together, defective products are automatically identified and located by lot and serial number so healthcare workers can spend more time with patients and less time searching stockroom shelves.
- Recall documentation linked to inventory and EHRs: RASMAS workflow provides comprehensive reporting to respond to recall audits.
With WaveMark CIMS, recall remediation documentation can be linked to the hospital's product inventory database and can reference the patient Electronic Health Record (EHR), eliminating the need for duplicate data entry and the potential errors.
- An expanded patient safety community: WaveMark solutions provide real-time, integrated supply chain collaboration between hospitals and medical device suppliers. WaveMark CIMS users can now collaborate with the RASMAS community of hospital patient safety, risk, and material management professionals who are focused on product recalls.
"We are very pleased to have this relationship," says Mark Lay, RASMAS Program Director. "RASMAS is designed to drive best practices in recall management and with WaveMark CIMS interoperability; hospitals can improve patient safety with more automated and expeditious means of removing potentially harmful products."
