3M RFID System to Track Army Medical Records

3M has announced the completion of an RFID Smart Shelf System at Fort Hood, Texas. The company designed and installed the RFID solution to track the medical records of 150,000-plus US Army personnel and their family members.


The customized system was designed to “substantially reduce errors and inefficiencies associated with manual tracking, retrieval, filing and merging methods of medical records management at Fort Hood,” according to an article published today on TradingMarkets.com.


3M’s RFID Systems Site describes the technology’s ability to offer complete automation of tracking and management processes of RFID tagged items, including self-checkout/in, sorting, security and locating of items.


The $3.76 million Fort Hood contract includes a year of training and maintenance of the RFID system by 3M and Track and Trace Solutions.
