iRISecure: Streamlining Tissue and Implant Tracking for Better Compliance and Efficiency

In today’s highly regulated healthcare environment, meeting standards from organizations like The Joint Commission, OIG, and State Departments of Health is crucial. One of the most challenging areas is managing the receipt, storage, and usage of tissue and implants, which are heavily scrutinized during audits. With iRISecure, hospitals can not only stay compliant but also achieve significant operational efficiencies.

Why iRISecure?

iRISecure is an advanced tissue and implant tracking system designed to help hospitals meet ever-evolving regulatory requirements. By providing automated workflows, electronic compliance logs, and integrated inventory control, iRISecure ensures that hospitals are always prepared for inspections and audits.

Key Features and Benefits:

  • Joint Commission-Ready Compliance
    iRISecure delivers an electronic tissue log designed specifically to meet Joint Commission, FDA, and other regulatory requirements. It tracks ambient, refrigerated, and frozen tissue while controlling access to high-cost inventory.

  • Positive ROI Through Enhanced Inventory Management
    Despite making up a small percentage of overall inventory, tissue products often face similar challenges with overstocking and underutilization. By leveraging iRISecure’s capabilities, hospitals have seen substantial gains, including a 20% increase in cash collections, a 12% reduction in on-hand inventory, and a 30% improvement in charge capture accuracy.

  • Improved Clinical Documentation
    Accurate documentation is vital in today’s healthcare landscape. iRISecure’s RFID technology automates charge capture processes and ensures that all tissues and implants used in procedures are properly documented, reducing errors and preventing billing discrepancies.

  • Eliminate Manual Data Entry
    Manual data entry is time-consuming and error-prone. iRISecure uses RFID technology to achieve hands-free data capture, seamlessly sending accurate usage data to your EMR and billing systems. This eliminates the need for button clicks and dropdown menus while ensuring that data integrity remains intact.

  • Optimized Inventory Control
    Efficient inventory management is key to reducing costs and preventing waste. With iRISecure, hospitals can automate inventory control, set optimal PAR levels, and receive real-time alerts for expiring products. Additionally, it simplifies product recalls with a real-time search feature.

  • Seamless EMR and HIS Integration
    iRISecure integrates effortlessly with a wide range of hospital systems, including Cerner Millennium, EPIC, Meditech, and more. The integration is customized to match your hospital’s systems, with data securely stored behind your hospital’s firewall.
