OptiFlex MS Medical Surgical
Product Overview
OptiFlex™ MS is a comprehensive system for managing medical surgical supply items in nursing units. The system gives clinical staff quick and easy access to supplies, while improving inventory management for a better bottom line. The net result is improved efficiency and productivity for both materials management and nursing.
This robust software captures real-time, point-of-use data, enabling you to accurately track medical surgical supply inventory and procedures by physician.
Tailored for the Way Nurses Work
- Medical surgical supply items can be stocked on open shelves, closed cabinets, or a combination of the two.
- Using a simple touch screen interface, nursing staff can easily issue items by simply scanning a bar code or pushing a button.
- Medical surgical supply usage and patient charges are automatically tracked, eliminating the need for manual documentation.
Streamlines Supply Chain Management and Reduces Costs
By facilitating the replenishment process, OptiFlex MS saves time for materials management staff. It also reduces costs by keeping inventory levels to a minimum and increasing inventory turns. As nurses use supply items, the inventory on hand is updated in the software.
