Studies have shown that:• Avg. hospital duplicate rate is 5-10%• Hidden cost of duplicates = $50• 5 dupes/day = $78,000/year (based

One hospital spent $729,000 in consulting fees to merge their
duplicate medical records. Out of 65,000 potential dupes, only 22,000
were merged.

Biometric technology can prevent duplicate patient records ONLY IF
the system performs a true One-To-Many (1:N) comparison

One-to-One (1:1) Verification
Here’s who I am There’s my biometric template
Let’s confirm to make sure!
“Are you who you claim to be?”

One-to-Few (1:Few) Segmented Identification
Let’s hope you can tell me something
about yourself
Scan your biometric
DOB9/9/76
DOB6/8/80
DOB5/21/72
System compares only against small
segment of database
“Are you in this group?”

One-to-Many (1:N) Identification
Scan your biometric Compare against
entire biometric database
“Who are you?”

Takeaways
• 1:1 and 1:Few CANNOT prevent duplicates or fraud
• 1:N CAN
