GE Healthcare Teams With CenTrak on RFID

Waukesha, Wis.-based GE Healthcare is partnering with CenTrak Inc. of Newtown, Pa., on a predominantly battery-operated Radio Frequency ID (RFID) tracking system.

According to GE, the new asset optimization solution — DualTrak — will enable healthcare facilities to reduce installation barriers and costs. In addition, the solution’s ability to accurately view locations at the room-level will enhance a hospital’s operational efficiency and improve overall patient care, the company states.

The solution is designed to accommodate an unlimited number of tags and does not consume high amounts of bandwidth.
