CIOs, IT and Materials Managers: Never again lose track of key assets!

McKesson's RTLS solution uses a hospital's existing 802.11 Wi-Fi network, active RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) technology, and software to instantly track the location and movements of critical assets and hospital personnel. Small RFID tags send signals over the wireless network to a location engine that reports tag locations on a geospatial view of the hospital.

Special Guest, Ray Shingler, CIO, Spartanburg Regional Medical Center, will be giving an update one year after go-live.

  1. Learn about common asset tracking and utilization challenges facing IT and materials managers.
  2. Discover the benefits of the Horizon Real-Time Location System.

  4. Review the common deployment steps for the Horizon Real-Time Location System.
  5. Hear why McKesson's planned RFID Gateway product will enable you to leverage your existing McKesson applications.
