ConnectSx offers hospitals free access to its medical inventory management software in response to COVID-19
Summary
Critical supplies like personal protective equipment are dwindling, while other valuable assets are lost or misplaced in the shuffle – significantly impeding the delivery of timely quality care. To support this accelerated need for streamlining the healthcare supply chain, ConnectSx announced that it will offer hospitals free access to its medical inventory management software for at least the next six months. “The primary driver behind this offer is our belief that cost and budget constraints should not be the factors that define the decision-making process in times of crisis,” Riedel said, “especially when it comes to implementing tools that support critical healthcare operations by reducing the impact on clinical staff.” In addition to helping providers find and acquire critical supplies in real-time, ConnectSx also enables hospitals to share device-related knowledge remotely – facilitating supply chain operations with limited contact. Medical sales reps, who typically bear a significant share of asset management responsibility, may now be restricted from entering clinical settings – making remote access to inventory information even more valuable throughout the hospital supply chain. Through web-based tools and mobile applications, ConnectSx offers capabilities to simplify hospital inventory control, case scheduling and management, UDI tracking, device-specific education and other complex workflows.
