VeriChip Corporation Deploys VeriMed System in 18 Emergency Departments
'The VeriMed System, which consists of a hand-held radio frequency identification (RFID) scanner, an implantable RFID microchip, and a secure patient database, is being used to help rapidly identify and provide access to important health information on participating patients who arrive at the emergency department unconscious, delirious, or unable to communicate.
Although over 150 hospitals have registered to use the VeriMed System, EMA is the first emergency physician group in the United States to have the VeriMed System available in all 18 of its contract hospitals.'
