WaveMark Enterprise Visibility Solutions Converting Data into Actionable Information
The Challenge: Control Costs and Improve Care at the Same Time Controlling costs while maintaining high quality patient care is an ongoing healthcare challenge. Inventory is a key factor in achieving the cost/quality balance; inefficient inventory systems can throw that balance off. Overstocking, shrinkage and loss are prevalent. Clinicians waste time searching for consumable assets. Expired consumables can create major regulatory risks and impact patient safety. WaveMark CIMS is an efficient inventory system that gives hospitals the one thing they need most to create and maintain cost/quality balance Enterprise Visibility. The Solution: A Higher Level of Enterprise Visibility Enterprise Visibility coupled with business intelligence gives you the insight to identify issues and the tools to perform predictive analysis to resolve them. The answer to Enterprise Visibility: WaveMark CIMS. The Next Wave of RTLS For tracking mobile assets, hospitals increasingly are turning to Real-time Location Services (RTLS). WaveMark CIMS is the next wave of RTLS: A real-time consumable asset tracking system. WaveMark CIMS leverages RFID and network technologies to track and manage consumable assets. You can view online the data collected from RFID tags, readers and smart cabinets and track inventory throughout every stage of care. With WaveMark CIMS, hospitals can track consumable assets and achieve the highest level of Enterprise Visibility. Digitized Data Capture Helping to increase revenue by capturing charges of consumable assets at the point of patient care.

WaveMark gives me control. I tracked inventory pretty closely before, but there were always a few products that were unaccounted for. With WaveMark I know exactly what I have, how much and when I need to reorder, and I immediately know if something is missing.
