Benefits of Moving Materials Management to the Cloud

Healthcare providers have unique material management requirements because of the high volume of materials they consume and track across their campuses or facilities. Having the right amount of the right supplies, at the right time and place, and at the lowest possible cost isn't as easy as it might seem, and it is essential to increasing the quality of patient care. When most of that data exists on paper or in silos, it can be very difficult to gather all of the pieces.  That's where a mobile solution for Oracle Healthcare comes in.

These Industry Needs?


•   Do you struggle with having the right supplies in the right place at the right time across your facility?
•   Do you need real-time visibility into your hospital operations?
•   Do you know what your staff is doing?

Simplify the Ordering Process with RF-SMART’s
Mobile Requisitioning

High-dollar inventory locations like the OR/Cath Labs/IR, are not managed like PAR locations or Storeroom inventory. Oftentimes the process of reordering items falls to a high-value resource, like a clinician or clinical supply chain professional manually capturing what supplies need to be reordered and then manually entering that data into Oracle Self Service Procurement Cloud.

RF-SMART’s Mobile Requisitioning automates this process with a web-enabled mobile device, eliminating the risk of errors from data entry and drastically improving efficiency.

Automate the ordering process using mobile:

  • Designed to not disrupt clinical workflow​, supplies are ordered from mobile device based on walkthrough
  • Streamlined process of Scan the Item, Enter the Quantity and Verify the UOM
  • Review, edit and delete lines on the device prior to finishing requisition
  • Requisition is submitted and built to Oracle Cloud

Clinicians can now spend less time managing inventory and more time focusing on patient care.

Everyone wins with a Healthcare Supply Chain that performs

Materials Management affects several departments in your organization. When you make improvements
to the performance of your supply chain, it can be appreciated throughout the entire facility:

Information Technology

Can manage a powerful solution,
without draining internal resources

IT Teams are resource-constrained and you don't need another interface to manage. RF-SMART is pre-integrated to Oracle via standard APIs and requires no IT investment to transfer of data between RF-SMART and Oracle Cloud. Our cloud-based application is easily scalable, always up-to-date, leverages industry best practices.

Supply Chain

Can gain maximum visibility into inventory

Supply chain decisions impact everything in the organization, from patient care to revenue. RF-SMART provides a simple way to streamline the materials management process in order to identify and avoid waste and duplication.

Clinicians

Can have what they need, when they need it

Doctors and nurses should be focused on patient care - not worrying about supplies. RF-SMART enables your supply chain team to ensure all PAR locations are always stocked, so no one ever needs to scramble.

Executives

Can make better decisions faster to control costs

There are many demands placed on the executive and finance teams of a healthcare organization. RF-SMART provides a way for executives to contain operating costs through the standardization of supplies, implants, and operations to enable a more streamlined and cost-effective supply chain.

“Our orders have to get out every day or we compromise patient care, and that’s not an option. Using RF-SMART, everyone from our VP, to our sales department, to the technicians has exactly what they need."
- Director of Operations for Supply Chain at a US Teaching Hospital
