RFID technology is not good enough to hold the wait-and-see attitude
Release date: 2009-05-21
Wal-Mart, the US retail giant, announced the launch of the RFID program in mid-2003. Regardless of how much efficiency this plan brings to Wal-Mart, the RFID technology itself is indeed worth rising due to Wal-Mart's plan. Even the most important top ten technologies in the century, all walks of life are discussing how to use RFID to create benefits, and the medical industry is one of them.
In fact, the RFID application mode of the medical industry is very extensive, including blood bag management, medical record management, valuable instrument tracking, waste product tracking, emergency ambulance tracking, home care monitoring, patient identification, operating room management, nursery room management, drug logistics. Management, access control, etc., almost every aspect can integrate RFID technology.
Huang Zhengjie, Industry Analyst of the Industry Council, analyzed the current application of RFID in Taiwan's medical industry. He summarized six models: safety control, emergency rescue, drug management, health check, remote care, and blood bag management. Tube applications are the most common, and applications range from access control, patient or personnel identification... and more.
Cost-effective, difficult to evaluate, RFID is good
Although RFID has a wide range of applications in the medical industry, there are not many companies that have a willingness to import. According to the survey of the Institute of Industrial Intelligence (MIC), "2009 Taiwan Medical Industry Information Technology Investment and Application Prospects", 2008 In Taiwan, more than 15.6% of hospitals have been introduced into RFID applications. 70% of the importers are concentrated in medical centers, and they are all imported in small scale. The investment ratio is not high, and it is biased towards experimental nature.
What is the reason for the RFID call? In fact, it is nothing more than two factors: cost and difficulty evaluation.
First, the cost is high: Although the RFID tag is expensive, there has been a significant price reduction trend in recent years, but if it is to be actively detected or has special specifications (such as waterproof), the cost is still too high;
Second, the difficulty of evaluation: the benefits of the introduction of RFID, most of them are intangible benefits, such as: improve security, in the case of difficult to quantify into the number, it is naturally not easy to convince the industry to adopt.
In addition, there are not many applications of RFID in the market. Even if it has been developed for many years, for the medical industry, RFID is still a kind of emerging technology, and medical services are closely related to life safety. When medical companies choose new technologies, In addition to considering practicality, stability, and safety, it also pays special attention to peer experience. In the absence of other successful experiences, the attitude of the medical industry toward RFID tends to be conservative.
Modern medical emphasizes patient safety and medical quality, and these two points are also the main driving force for IT investment in medical institutions. Therefore, although the current willingness of medical practitioners to introduce RFID is low, system integrators only need to cut in from the above two angles. , there may be good results, such as blood bag management, open room management, medication safety, infectious disease tracking, etc., are all applications that strengthen patient safety, in the trend of information application towards U-development, RFID The future is still promising.
