Triemli Hospital Zürich – CLEARjet based employee and patient cards

 

At the Hospital Triemli in Zürich, CLEARjet print and erase systems facilitate the life for employees as well as for patients with rewritable cards and save money for the hospital.

The hospital employee ID card is equipped with a Legic chip, enabling access to different hospital areas and allows time recording through a suitable software. Important information like name and position are printed on the hospital ID card through CLEARjet print and erase systems on a partial TRW stripe with an update possibility of several hundred times. The reusability of rewrite cards also allows the hospital to issue ID´s for temporary personnel which offers the same functionalities as the permanent IDs.

In addition also the patient cards are processed by the CLEARjet print and erase systems. Every patient gets his/her own patient card with their personal name printed on through rewrite technology. The patient card is a contact chip card with a payment function. Money can easily be loaded onto the chip and TV, telephone and restaurant consumptions can be paid by the card in a very easy and convenient way without the need for the patient to take along money. After the hospital stay the remaining sum is disbursed and the data stored and printed on the card is deleted and the card is ready for the next patient.

The big advantages of rewrite technology for the Triemli Hospital is that employee IDs can easily be updated and patient cards can easily be reused – which saves a lot of system costs for the hospital. In addition the cards allow convenient payments within the hospital without the need of cash and coin handling.

The CLEARjet based employee and patient card system of the Triemli Hospital has been implemented by the company Interlock, CLEARjet’s Swiss Partner, who is successfully working in the rewrite business since years.
