Current Issues in Healthcare include…
 Networks, systems, medical devices, and wall clocks
display and record different times.
 No certainty of start/end times for events, tasks, etc.
 Without accurate time for Electronic Healthcare Records
(EHR’s), you are vulnerable to potential litigation
 Error-prone manual clock-time setting
What You Do Not Want To See in Your Facility
•
•
Physical Security system has “12:22:29”
Display Clock reads “12:16”

What can Time Synchronization do
to Improve Healthcare Operations?
 Accuracy of records assured –
treatments, procedures, time of
birth/death, etc.
 Legally traceable time supports credibility
and consistency for EHR’s, log files, audit
trails, digital signatures.
 Enhances interoperability for all networks,
systems, and devices, as well as
between agencies.
 Provides regulatory compliance and best
practices, reduces liability.
 Fully automated, eliminates manual
resetting, automatic DST adjustment,
behind your firewall.
Credible, Consistent EHR’s
 Certification Commission for Healthcare IT
(CCHIT) – All electronic health and security
records are synchronized with UTC time and
NTP/SNTP protocols when a NetClock is
employed
 Health Level 7 (HL7) - NetClock provides full
compliance to the accuracy, security, and
manageability of this standard
 Chest Pain Accreditation – Accurate
Coordination of times between EMS, ER,
Cardiology, and Cath Lab ensures the best
results for cardiac arrest patients
 JCAHO standard IM 7.8 – NetClock provides
legal, authenticated date/time stamps for
medical records
 FDA 21 CFR Part 11 – Accurate timestamped audit trails supported by NetClock
Continue the string of Traceability
NetClock can provide
Legally Traceable Time from the moment
the patient enters the hospital:
911, EMS, Police, etc… all provide this
time, up until the patient is brought into
the hospital. Continue the string of
traceability by synchronizing the hospital
network, systems, equipment, displays,
etc… so that your records can be
admissible in a court of law.

Spectracom for accurate time
