Replace Barcode Scanning With Image Capture

TecsysIQ Image Capture

TecsysIQ™ Image Capture lets clinicians capture product data at the point of care from an image of the packaging. The system identifies the correct GS1 barcode in the image and extracts the unique device identification (UDI) data.

Why barcode scanning breaks down at the point of care

A single package can carry proprietary, manufacturer, shipping and GS1 barcodes, and clinicians have to know which one to scan and in what order. Hard-to-read barcodes fail to scan, go unrecognized or decode incorrectly because of improper parsing or non-GS1 formatting. Each failure sends the clinician to manual entry or leaves UDI details incomplete during case documentation, which creates rework and contributes to lost revenue and replenishment challenges.

How image capture works

mobile-medical-a

Capture an image

 The clinician photographs the product packaging with a mobile device and adds an image if the barcodes are on different sides. There is no barcode to choose and no scanning sequence to manage. 

checkmark-icon-a

Identify and populate

 Image Capture identifies the correct GS1 barcode, extracts the UDI data and populates the product fields in Tecsys’ Clinical Documentation User Interface (CDUI).

consignment-station-a

Complete the record

 The clinician adds any procedure details the case requires, such as implant site or tissue documentation, in the same CDUI workflow. The image record is kept for auditing and vendor product reviews.

What changes for your hospital

nodes-network-c

Faster documentation

Clinicians stop sorting through barcodes and keying identifiers by hand, so documentation takes less time during the procedure.
hospital-bed-nursing-station-c

More reliable consumption data

 Fewer failed scans and manual entries mean fewer errors in the records that drive inventory and replenishment.

Improved charge capture

Accurate capture of each item at the point of care improves charge capture and closes a source of lost revenue.

Patient safety and audit-ready records

Accurate product identification supports patient safety. A saved image record gives quality and compliance teams an auditable trail for each item captured.

Built into the existing Epic documentation workflow

Recorded items transfer to Epic through the existing integration without a second entry. Image Capture adds an image-based way to collect the product data at the start of that workflow. Image Capture is part of Tecsys’ Hospital Point of Use (POU) and is available now.

“With Tecsys, we’re able to drill down to measure supply utilization by campus, by physician, by procedure, run the data, fine-tune and repeat. We’ve already seen nearly $4 million in one-time inventory savings and surgical supply optimization across disciplines, not to mention the labor and productivity gains in case picking and reverse case picking time.”
