Scalable, flexible asset tracking for healthcare
According to studies, the typical hospital can lose nearly $1 million a year due to medical equipment theft*, and 5% to 15% of hospital inventory is written off each year since it can no longer be located or, more importantly, serviced**.
The Assetrac system from VeriChip can help you hold on to and locate these valuable medical assets for impressive financial returns.
More important, however, is the clinical benefit of asset locating. Being able to find equipment when needed reduces patient wait times, and lets staff concentrate on patient care. That leads to more satisfied patients and staff.
