Medical Applications of BellHawk

The BellHawk software is being increasingly used in medical applications for:

• Tracking the manufacture and distribution of pharmaceuticals

• Tracking the manufacture and distribution of medical devices and supplies

• Tracking inventory within medical facilities and laboratories, including enforcing expiration dates, storage requirements, quality control parameters, and hazardous materials status.

• Tracking the testing of clinical materials for diseases

• Tracking the movement of pharmaceuticals within medical facilities

With its use of barcodes and RFID to track materials by lot and serial number and location, as well as to track the identity of all staff members who handled the materials, BellHawk is ideally suited as a materials tracking add-on to:

• Medical and pharmaceutical manufacturing and distribution ERP systems

• Laboratory information systems



• Medical record systems

• Hospital management systems

• Pharmacy management systems

With its BSAF (pronounced be-safe) store and forward technology, BellHawk is able to perform data collection with mobile hand-held devices, even in those situations where there is limited wireless communications coverage and interference from medical and laboratory equipment. BellHawk uses a local database in each mobile data collection device to perform point-of-action data validation to help prevent operational mistakes. Then, when the unit is within range of a wireless access point, it automatically exchanges data with the main system. This enables BellHawk to be used in facilities where the cost of providing complete wireless coverage would be prohibitive. It also enables BellHawk to be used off-site, such as in home-nursing situations.

BellHawk Systems has made a major investment in tools that enable interfaces to be rapidly implemented to a wide range of medical and laboratory information systems, as well as ERP and accounting systems. This enables the mobile barcode and RFID data collection abilities of BellHawk to be rapidly and cost-effectively added to existing systems.

BellHawk is designed to be quickly and cost-effectively tailored to the data collection needs of each individual mobile data collection application while retaining the benefits of the BSAF technology. BellHawk can also integrate data collected at multiple facilities into a single point of interface with medical and laboratory systems. This secure integration can be over the Internet, wireless cell-phone data networks, wireless LAN networks as well as wired networks.
