Abstract:
A system and method for bulk encoding medical items in a tracking system in a healthcare facility comprises attaching to each of a plurality of identical medical items a blank RFID tag. When activated simultaneously, the serial numbers of all RFID tags on all the identical medical items are read and their serial numbers are associated with the pre-stored characteristics of the medical item in a data base. The RFID tags are blank in that they include no human-readable data concerning the medical article to which the RFID tag is attached. A data mining system and method are provided for mining the database.

Claim (Index 9):
A method for bulk encoding a plurality of medical items received at a healthcare facility with wireless identification devices for identifying and tracking the received medical items while in the healthcare facility, comprising:\n receiving the plurality of medical items each having a name and a characteristic; storing information about the received medical items, including the name and the characteristic in a computer-readable database located in a non-volatile memory; selecting a plurality of identical medical items from those medical items received and attaching a wireless identification device to each of the selected identical medical items, each of the wireless identification devices having a serial number; after the wireless identification devices have been attached to all the identical medical items, reading the wireless identification devices of all the selected medical items at the same time to obtain the serial numbers of the wireless identification devices; and associating the serial numbers read from all the wireless identification devices of the identical medical items to the name and characteristic for that medical item stored in the database thereby identifying that medical item with the serial numbers of the read RFID tags.
