M2SYS tapped for biometric health care solution in Angola

Wednesday, January 27, 2010

M2SYS Technology, a developer of biometric solutions, is working with 1Key4Solutions, an international health care technology group, to bring M2SYS’ biometric solutions to hospitals in Angola. The project is expected to begin with Hospital 28 Augosta, which is one of the largest hospitals in the country.


The need for a biometric solution was decided by Hospital 28 Augosta when they noticed large issues relating to patient identification and maintaining accurate records of their patients.

The solution M2SYS is implementing to solve the issue is an integrated clinical information system from 1Key4Solutions member RPGSi Business solutions, called HealthGest Software, that will be integrated with an M2SYS fingerprint identification system. 1Key4Solutions chose M2SYS as the provider of biometric solutions to the healthcare industry in Angola due to its track record in biometric system implementation in Africa. [end]
