Why does the healthcare industry need Xcelrate UDI’s barcode scanning solution?

Medical recalls have caused more than 80,000 deaths since 2008, according to the FDA. Almost 600 million medical devices were recalled between 2018 and 2019, 50% of which in the U.S. alone. 

Aside from damage to patients and healthcare staff, the admin involved with medical recalls cost millions.

Our application eliminates manual processes that are inefficient and ineffective. Using barcode scanning reduces the error and omissions made with the manual recording of data that can threaten patient safety.

Users can use our barcode scanning solution to identify and prevent the use of reported unsafe medical supplies with patients. Healthcare facilities and manufacturers that use our application save time, money and lives.

What data does Xcelrate UDI’s application capture?

We capture all of the data needed to satisfy the FDA's data capture requirements for these products. To date, we are the only barcode scanning vendor with their technology certified by the Office of the National Coordinator and that fully complies with all data collection requirements.

What are the most common causes of medical recalls you deal with?

Research has found that the most common reason for FDA-issued recalls are:

• Contamination

• Mislabeling

• Adverse reactions

• Defective product

• Incorrect potency.

We can’t stop medical recalls from happening, or stop products and biologics from expiring. But using our application, healthcare facilities can receive this information in real-time, and ensure patient safety at the point of care. Slow and ineffective communication can become the most dangerous aspect, if not improved on.

Who are your healthcare clients?

Client information is private. We can confirm that our solution is used by more than 450 surgical and procedure facilities in the US, across multiple healthcare networks. 

Does your barcode scanning application capture patient health information?

We do not capture patient information. If a client requires support, we are able to provide unique identifiers that match data and can assist with recall notices.
