Hello!
Does anyone use PPID on their iSTATs?  I am looking for pros and cons from your experiences with it. We have RALS middleware and are transitioning to EPIC EMR. 
Thanks!

I too am interested in knowing whether Positive Patient ID functionality (PPID) is a requirement as part of POC diagnostic device connectivity?

We do not, but I am also interested in it. Hopefully you'll get some responses. We don't see a ton of issues with wrong patient, but we have operators that consistently scan the cartridge barcode or their badge ID as the patient ID.
