The VA Northern California Health Care System would like to purchase Brand Name or Equal to InVita Healthcare Technologies UDITracker tissue and implant tracking system software to be used at the five VA locations listed below. Tissue tracking is a patient safety issue and a Joint Commission requirement. According to VHA policy, all medical facilities are required to track implantable items/devices (biological and non-biological).� The VA Northern California Health Care System tracks human biological and non-biological implants using InVita (UDI Tracker) Healthcare Technologies hardware and software as an inter-communicating system. �This system complies with tissue and implant tracking requirements set by the Joint Commission (JCAHO). Each specialty is responsible for their own recalls and tracking of required UDI implants with oversight from Patient Safety, Prosthetics, Logistics, and Nursing Services. �Prior to the use of this system in 2019, recalls on implantable products took a fair amount of time to track and often the request for information was asked multiple times causing confusion and frustration.� UDITracker is in the process of integrating with Vista to streamline work and avoid data entry errors into VistA. The VA Northern California Health Care System would like to purchase a COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) web-based software solution that automates tissue and implant tracking.� The tracking system will manage inventory of all types of implantable items/devices (biological and non-biological), as well as have the full capacity to extend to other tracked items e. g. hearing aids, dental implants, high-cost items, critical need items, etc. �The tracking system will support oversight of all such devices across the VA Northern California Health Care System, which includes VA sites in Sacramento/Mather, Martinez, McClellan, Mare Island and Redding. �The software must integrate with the VA�s VistA system to streamline work and avoid double data entry and the potential for data entry errors into VistA. The proposed Period of Performance will be a Base Period of six months with up to four successive Option Years of 12 months each.
