IBSA Awarded RFID Contract with Premier
Located in Dayton, Ohio, International Business Solutions Alliance (IBSA) is bringing special pricing for its technology advancements to more than 2,100 hospitals and 58,000 healthcare organizations through a recently awarded Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) agreement with Premier Purchasing Partners, the group purchasing unit of Premier Inc. The 36-month agreement for RFID Asset Tracking and Management Solutions represents a new contract category for Premier, one of the country's largest healthcare alliances.
Hospitals are burdened with intense requirements to maintain effective inventories of the high-value surgical supplies and assets that are used to deliver patient care, requiring excessive inventory-carrying and management expense. RFID accurately tracks all items added or removed from inventories, allowing significantly reduced costs and a rapid ROI. Within healthcare, in addition to tracking high-value assets and surgical supplies, RFID can be used within patient wristbands, pneumatic tubes (carriers) or similar items to enhance compliance and accountability.
