Bar Coding
Bar coding adds reliability, time savings, ease of use, and convenience
to CRIS Location Tracking, at an affordable price. Chart tracking becomes faster and
easier than you'd think possible. Bar codes can be read from preprinted folders, or labels
can be printed from CRIS.
Why utilize bar coding?
Chart Tracking becomes quick and easy....
 | "Wand" the medical record bar code label, and the
location bar code. That's all that's needed - the chart is signed out. |
| To return charts, "Wand" the medical record bar code
label. That's all that's needed! |
| Bar code labels can be created quickly and easily - simply press
a function key while the chart is highlighted in CRIS. |
| Bar code labels include a bar code for the medical record number
and/or a discharge date or volume number. The number and the patient name print on the bar
code label to assure accurate placement on the chart. |
| Portable wands (the size of a fat fountain pen) can be taken to
where the charts are. After up to several hundred charts have been "wanded",
bring the portable wand back to CRIS. Put the wand in the "ink well" and with
several keystrokes all the charts are signed out or signed in. You may use several
portable wands with the same datawell. |
Bar coding is easy to Setup and Utilize
| The bar code equipment can be installed in a few minutes. It
simply plugs in - nothing to install inside the computer. |
| It takes only several minutes to learn how to "wand".
The functions mimic what you already do manually, thus there is very little new to learn
in CRIS. |
What is needed to start using bar coding?
| You can print bar code labels for chart tracking utilizing CoStar Desktop Label
Printers or batch print bar codes to a laser printer. Other Windows 95/NT compatible
printers supported on request. |
| Worthington WDP bar code wands and/or Symbol/MSI portable bar code wands. |
