What Healthcare Solutions Does Lowry Offer?

Our healthcare solutions

For the nation’s healthcare providers, cost control and accountability are more important than ever. Medical supplies and resources used in patient care must be accurately tracked and correctly billed. Medications, in particular, must be administered without error. Sophisticated and expensive medical systems must be maintained and available for optimum utilization, which is where mobile device management solutions play a crucial role in ensuring devices are secure, updated, and functioning efficiently. Patients themselves — and the complete record of the care they receive — must be tracked in real time from admission through discharge.

Lowry’s healthcare solutions support these requirements and more. Combining RFID and barcode technologies with relational database software, Lowry’s healthcare solutions track medical supplies and physical assets to improve inventory management, reduce procurement costs, and enhance the quality of care — in the hospital, satellite clinic, physician’s office, or patient’s home.

Mobile worker solutions

Lowry mobile worker solutions for the healthcare industry help home healthcare providers serve more patients per shift, deliver better and more accurate service in every visit, and improve profitability and cost recovery with accurate, real-time recordkeeping. The Lowry solution integrates with dispatch and workforce management systems to optimize mobile caregivers’ schedules and assign new appointments as they are requested. Mobile RFID or barcode computers capture complete information on medications or tests administered, specimens collected, medical equipment delivered, or services provided. This eliminates errors, reduces paperwork, and speeds insurance reimbursement. Every shift gets off to the right start with electronic confirmation that the mobile worker is hitting the road with all of the products and supplies needed that day.

But mobility doesn’t have to mean leaving the hospital. Lowry Solutions enables physicians, nurses, and other caregivers who spend their days away from a desk to capture, enter, and access patient information where it’s generated and needed most: at the point of care.

Distribution and delivery solutions

Whatever healthcare products you distribute and deliver — pharmaceuticals, diagnostic devices, beds, wheelchairs, uniforms, supplies — a solution from Lowry can track each delivery start to finish, helping you optimize loads and routes, reduce shipping errors, improve customer service, and cut operating costs. Lowry distribution and delivery solutions combine RFID tags and readers, long-range mobile scanners, forklift-mounted computers, and other best-of-breed technologies to enable real-time tracking of inventory, labor productivity, and delivery status. In the warehouse, real-time electronic forms integrate with RFID-tagged products, cartons, or entire pallets or containers to enable efficient storage, quick retrieval, and continual accountability.

RFID solutions for healthcare

From admitting to discharge and at every point of delivering care in between, Lowry RFID solutions help healthcare providers track, manage, and make the most effective use of medical equipment, supplies, and resources. With accurate, real-time inventory visibility, staff know whether needed beds, diagnostic tools, or devices are on hand — and where they are. The less time workers spend looking for supplies, the more time they have for serving patients.

Inventories and patient accounts can be instantly and continuously updated as medications and materials are dispensed and consumed. RFID scanning at the bedside assures the accuracy of medications administered and tests conducted and provides an audit trail of treatment, tests, and specimen collection. Patients’ vital signs can be monitored and equipment adjusted remotely, allowing nurses greater flexibility in attending to patients’ needs, even when they can’t be at the bedside.

Asset tracking

Lowry asset tracking solutions help healthcare providers contain costs, streamline management, and maximize the value of all the assets involved in the delivery of care. Whatever their role, team members can benefit from the real-time asset visibility provided by the Lowry solution. Caregivers and medical support staff can quickly locate equipment they need thanks to RFID readers that can track assets even as they’re moving. Equipment or facilities managers can complete audits or inventories in just hours, instead of days or weeks. Financial officers can track the complete lifecycle history of any asset from acquisition to disposal.

Knowing exactly what’s owned and on hand, procurement staff can buy at the most economical prices and avoid costly duplicate purchases. IT assets can also be tracked and managed, for more effective visibility, control, and accountability. And data collected with RFID helps providers monitor and improve regulatory compliance.

Creating a Connected Healthcare Ecosystem with Integrated Tracking Technology

Healthcare organizations manage thousands of critical assets, medical supplies, mobile devices, and patient-related workflows every day. As operations become more complex, maintaining visibility across departments requires more than standalone tracking tools. An integrated technology ecosystem enables healthcare providers to connect people, processes, and equipment while improving operational efficiency and supporting high-quality patient care.

Improve Resource Availability

Hospitals and healthcare facilities rely on the timely availability of essential equipment, from infusion pumps and wheelchairs to diagnostic devices and mobile workstations. Real-time visibility helps staff quickly identify where equipment is located and whether it is currently available for use.

By reducing time spent searching for assets, healthcare teams can respond more efficiently to patient needs while improving equipment utilization across the organization.

Streamline Inventory Management

Healthcare inventory includes everything from pharmaceuticals and surgical supplies to laboratory materials and personal protective equipment. Manual inventory processes can increase the risk of shortages, overstocking, or expired products.

Integrated tracking solutions help automate inventory management by providing:

• Real-time stock visibility
• Automated replenishment notifications
• Multi-location inventory tracking
• Improved product traceability
• Reduced manual inventory counts

These capabilities help maintain appropriate inventory levels while minimizing waste and unnecessary procurement costs.

Enhance Operational Coordination

Healthcare operations involve multiple departments working together to deliver seamless patient care. Connected tracking systems improve communication by providing accurate, real-time information that can be shared across clinical, administrative, and support teams.

Examples include:

• Coordinating equipment availability between departments
• Tracking deliveries across healthcare facilities
• Managing laboratory specimens
• Monitoring inventory consumption
• Supporting maintenance scheduling for medical equipment

Greater visibility allows teams to make faster decisions while reducing delays that can impact patient services.

Support Data-Driven Decision Making

Modern healthcare organizations generate significant operational data every day. When asset, inventory, and workflow information is centralized, administrators gain valuable insights into resource utilization and operational performance.

Analytics can help organizations identify:

• Frequently utilized medical equipment
• Inventory usage trends
• Equipment utilization rates
• Maintenance requirements
• Supply chain performance
• Opportunities to improve operational efficiency

These insights support better planning while helping healthcare providers allocate resources more effectively.

Scalable Solutions for Evolving Healthcare Needs

As healthcare networks expand through new facilities, outpatient clinics, or home healthcare services, technology solutions must scale alongside operational growth. Flexible tracking platforms support multiple locations while maintaining consistent visibility across the organization.

Lowry Solutions combines barcode, RFID, IoT technologies, enterprise mobility services, and its Sonaria platform to help healthcare providers build connected tracking environments that integrate with existing enterprise systems. This unified approach enables organizations to improve asset visibility, automate workflows, strengthen inventory management, and support long-term operational efficiency.

By delivering end-to-end healthcare tracking solutions—from mobile devices and asset tracking to labeling, software integration, and ongoing support—Lowry Solutions helps healthcare organizations optimize resources, improve accountability, and create a more connected environment that supports both operational excellence and quality patient care.
