3M's RFID File Tracking System is based on High Frequency RFID technology."Since we first published our initial position paper on RFID in 2007, HIBCC (Health Industry Business Communications Council) has consistently warned that the UHF (Ultra High Frequency) implementations proposed by non-healthcare standards organizations and some RFID product vendors could create problems in hospitals," said Robert Hankin, HIBCC's president. "Our position is that the use of generic retail identification standards in medical care settings poses unnecessary risks and the JAMA-reported RFID study confirmed our position by indicating that there can be serious consequences from UHF RFID in critical care environments."
