This data model is for tracking surgical supplies (e.g., scalpels, bandages) between systems.
Inventory workflows are common for connecting to inpatient EHR systems with robust interfacing capabilities and surgical specialty modules. Supplies are often used in areas that function similarly to surgery (e.g., invasive cardiology, angiography).
You can exchange inventory data with inventory management systems, the EHR system, or other system responsible for consuming supplies.
This data model has event types that allow you to:
- send administrative updates; or
- document supply depletions.
Send a message to document the usage of supply (e.g., during a surgical procedure) from the EHR system to the Enterprise Resource Planner (ERP).
The optional Patient object provides context for charging based on supply usage. Without the Patient object, the Deplete event type can be used to document normal supply usage and trigger automatic creation of a reorder (requisition).
