Abstract
A reader device is configured to wirelessly read medical information from a medical identification device and location information from a location identification device when the devices are within a range of the at least one reader device. A tracking device receives an indication that first medical information and first location information was read at a first location when a first medical identification device associated with the first medical object and a first location identification device associated with the first location was read at the first location by at least one reader device, and a last-known location of the first medical object associated with the medical identification device is generated based on the first location information read at the first location. In response to receiving a tracking request for a delivery status of a first medical object, the last-known location is provided display responsive to the tracking request.
