BarTender® Software for Healthcare Labeling

Healthcare providers have a singular mandate to maintain patient safety. But they also must balance regulatory requirements and, with healthcare operating margins averaging less than 3%, increased pressure for cost control.

Labeling and auto-identification methods, such as barcodes and RFID, can enable the data capture and sharing goals of eHealth and electronic record programs. These technologies provide the link between the patient and today's EHR / EMR, helping healthcare practitioners and facilities meet meaningful use criteria, enabling regulatory compliance, and providing the systems interoperability that increases accuracy and efficiency in patient care and supply chain processes.
