CAC Card Barcode Reader – CAC1910i

Need a reliable barcode scanner to read your CAC card?  We can help!  With the CAC1910i, we can scan and transmit both barcodes: the PDF417 on the front and the Code 39 barcode on the back.   If required, we can also set  the scanner to scan the front barcode but only send the data you require.  We often supply the scanners just to transmit the name on the card.  This is great for student attendance tracking logs, check in or check out procedures, and mailrooms, when service personnel come to claim packages and mail.  TCG CAC 1910i industrial scanner datasheet.   Video demonstration here    Email us at Sales@tcgbarcode.com or call (410)239-6808.

Why BCMA(BPOC) is so important..

It’s important for the patients and the hospitals.  About 15 years ago there were three quarters of a million Adverse drug event(ADE) reports.  With the advent of many EHR and barcode medication administration systems-that number is decreasing everyday.

We need to continue the push:

  • Patients who experienced adverse drug events (ADEs) were hospitalized an average of 8 to 12 days longer than patients who did not suffer ADEs, and their hospitalization cost $16,000 to $24,000 more.
  • Anywhere from 28 percent to 95 percent of ADEs can be prevented by reducing medication errors through computerized monitoring systems.
  • Computerized medication order entry has the potential to prevent an estimated 84 percent of dose, frequency, and route errors.
  • Hospitals can save as much as $500,000 annually in direct costs by using computerized systems.

Never put the wrong label on a specimen or sample again!

Don’t ever grab the wrong sample or specimen labels from the networked laser printer again. Zebra’s QLn Series Healthcare printers are small and light enough
to be easily carried on a belt clip or mobile medication cart and deliver labels at the point
of care. This saves time and money and improves the patient experience, not to mention-patient safety.

In addition, we recently added FIPS 140-2 to enhance wireless security on these devices.
