collect data, and analyze results. POCT (Point-of-Care Testing) is bedside testing for patients. Although POCT technologies provide many benefits such as, reduced testing time, decreased turnaround time, increased portability, and improved accuracy of results, high costs have inhibited many facilities from purchasing and using POCT technologies. Finding a way to reduce the cost of POCT technologies could save many lives through the aforementioned processes. Three solutions have been proposed to this problem:
making the technology investment? This is one of the most important questions to ask. Almost all companies depend on some technology solution to deliver goods and services. Investing in new technologies for the sake of having the latest up-to-date systems, just does not seem to cut it in the minds of most industry executives, nor does trying to rationalize a major technology investment solely on the basis of reducing ongoing maintenance costs of the old systems. Information technology usually does
