RFID technology can provide many benefits for healthcare and pharmaceuticals
application. There two approaches to the methodology first one relies heavily on
reading and interpreting research and existing source from healthcare and RFID, etc.
This approach identifies the RFID technology, capability, and issuer concerns with
The framework for this study utilizes the Lean Six Sigma tool of value stream
mapping (VSM). This study follows the framework of VSM by identifying the current
state map, create and outline lean value stream potential, and future state map.
1. Collaboration.

RFID applications can control product diversion, protect against counter fit drug and
A case study on pregnant women was done RFID technology helps a lot in waiting,
admitting, curing and discharging of a patient during whole process due to free flow
of information.
Investments into RFID technology should only be made for certain aspects of supply.
But within few years, it will be cheap enough to fully integrate into healthcare supply
chains.
