Touchscreen Case Study - BCX Technology, Inc.
Overview
David Mason, president of BCX Technology, Inc., began automating the
manual counting process for hospitals. Two years later,
Mason arrived at the decision that would
make the difference—he added hardware
to his software solution in the form of a
touch interface.
With AccuTouch now his preferred
interface, Mason created BCX’s
ScanREQ System that reduced the inventory control of hospital medical supplies to a
two-step process. A ScanREQ system is
installed at each nursing station and at
other supply areas throughout the hospital
where patient charging takes place. The
nurse simply touches the screen for the
room/patient to which the item is issued
and then scans the item label or shelf label.
The button on the touchscreen displays the
room number along with the patient’s
name. In this easy two-step process, the
nurse performs a charge for the patient (if
it’s a chargeable item) and debits the onhand
inventory value of the ScanREQ
Inventory Control Module in real time.
