Advantages of RTLS in Healthcare
The implementation of RTLS in the facility centers has allowed reducing the cost of assets required in the hospitals. It has also enhanced work efficiencies right from clinical management to nursing staff. The two major applications, such as asset tracking and patient tracking, have provided maximum value to hospitals in tracking patients, staff, inventories, equipment, and other such factors. The automated tracking through RTLS has enabled to save costs and time for hospitals and outpatients clinics. For instance, in October 2019, a Florida-based hospital has saved more than US$ 250 000 by leveraging asset Wi-Fi RTLS that assist in locating equipment and medical device by reducing rental costs and create value for future RTLS expansion. In addition, the real-time tracking facility helps in streamlining the processes more efficiently. The functions such as Bluetooth, LTE, UWB, and Zigbee have added better value additions in their current businesses. For instance, in January 2018, CenTrak has updated its Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacon technology to its next-generation Enterprise Location Services for healthcare infrastructures. The updating of its services has allowed better interoperability, reliability, extreme battery life, and scalability and has enhanced their service offerings. Thus, such advantages offered by the RTLS to healthcare are likely to drive the market's growth during the forecast period.
