Medical City Dallas Hospital Staff Response 'Very Positive'

"After we ‘went live’ with TrackCore, our staff response has been very positive. I have been impressed with your software from the first time I saw a demonstration! I am amazed at the ease of use and intuitiveness. The TrackCore process is very easy to navigate. From receiving an item, to adding vendors and users, TrackCore makes tissue tracking painless.

I cannot express how happy we are that we have implemented TrackCore at Medical City Dallas.

Tissue TrackCore Now Supports RFID Technology

At the 2009 AORN Congress, LPiT Solutions, the developer of Tissue TrackCore announced that their software solution now supports integration with RFID hardware. RFID hardware is used to wirelessly receive product identification information from an RFID label and then electronically transmit the information directly to Tissue TrackCore, reducing the number of keystrokes required to perform data entry if bar code scanners are not in use. The RFID integration allows hospitals to track items with less manual data entry, providing for quicker and more accurate data entry, thus saving hospitals time and money.
Tissue TrackCore has become a best in breed solution for meeting Joint Commission and FDA compliance regulations regarding the tracking of tissue and other implantable items. Developed by a group of healthcare and technology professionals, Tissue TrackCore continues to evolve in ways that make tracking implantable items and meeting compliance regulations easier, faster and more affordable. In the next few months, Tissue TrackCore will be integrating even more technology to make meeting Joint Commission requirements that much faster and easier.

Did You Know? Several New Changes To The Joint Commission Standards for 2009 Could Affect How Hospitals Transplant Tissue And Organs.

There are several new changes to the Joint Commission Standards for 2009. One of the biggest changes directly affects the transplanting of tissues and organs.

• Transplant Safety (TS) is now its own Gold Chapter and a hospital must meet all the Elements of Performance (EP) in this chapter as a “Requirement for Accreditation”

What this means: The Joint Commission surveyor will spend time doing tracers and reviews on your entire tissue program.

• The new TS chapter requires more Documentation and new Measures of Success.

What this means: A Measure of Success (MOS) is needed. An MOS is defined as a quantifiable measure, usually related to an audit, which will be used to determine whether an action has been effective and is being sustained.

• There are now six Elements of Performance (EP) that are critically tagged and fall under the “Direct Impact Requirement” {TS .03.01.01 #5, #10} {TS .03.02.01 #1} {TS .03.03.01 #3, #4, #5}

What this means: If one or more Direct Impact EPs under a standard are found to be partially or insufficiently compliant, then all EPs under that standard must be addressed in an Evidence of Standards Compliance (ESC) within 45 days. Failure to send in the ESC or the MOS can result in either conditional accreditation or even denial of accreditation, or an unannounced on-site validation survey to see if you have made the required changes.

• Tissue TrackCore (TTC) is the only tissue tracking compliance software to be reviewed by the Joint Commission Resources. TTC can help you simply and efficiently meet all of the new standards with minimum impact on your staff.

What this means: For the cost of a couple of pieces of tissue you can not only ensure compliance, but also save time and reduce costs by purchasing the market leading software solution.
