The Auto-ID Technical Committee (AITC) works with the healthcare community to determine how best to support the development and implementation of open system automatic identification standards that will promote standardized information exchange between all healthcare participants.
Automatic identification systems are at the focal point of the discussion for improving clinical and logistical healthcare processes, such as those addressed by the FDA???s proposed UDI rule – More information available here.
Through the implementation of standards-based technology, providers can develop internal applications that minimize the potential errors involved in patient care and maximize operational efficiencies. Open system standards enable consistent information exchange between all parties, increasing the benefits of automation throughout the industry.
