One of the trends that we see this year is more pronounced use of automated data capture system instead of manual form filling. There are many benefits for sure.

In other words RTLS not only helps hospitals to keep tab on all their expensive assets, it also can help a hospital to streamline workflow management\u00a0 using IOT-enabled identity cards, asset tags and patient tags.<\/p>\n<p>Healthcare IT News posted an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthcareitnews.com\/news\/ai-machine-learning-rtls-and-robotic-process-automation-2023\">article<\/a> this month. Quoting the article,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>It often can be time-consuming and impacted by human error when healthcare staff are left to juggle the needs of their patients and the administrative requirements of manual documentation. RTLS leverages IoT-enabled badges to automate data collection, providing accurate insights while enhancing the patient care experience.<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, I expect more healthcare organizations will use these badges to collect data enterprise wide to gain comprehensive real-time insights on equipment utilization, clinical workflows, patient\/staff interactions and safety compliance to reduce operational bottlenecks, increase efficiency and improve the patient experience.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>INDTRAC can help you choose the right technology, instruments and implement customized workflow management using RTLS.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Healthcare Industry is constantly upgrading technologies to improve service predictability and reduce cost.
