Aethon Aids Sinai Hospital in Reducing Medication Turnaround Time, Costs and Missing Doses
By implementing Aethon's TUG robot and MedEx medication tracking system, Sinai Hospital reported reduced medication delivery time, from 60 to 33 minutes, and eliminated the need for the 6.2 full-time equivalents associated with their former manual delivery process. And, upon implementing MedEx, missing medication doses immediately decreased 20 percent resulting in an annualized savings of $150,000. Aethon provides industry-leading, technology-based logistics solutions to hospitals with MedEx and TUG robots. More information can be found at www.aethon.com.
