These biometric authentication systems, which include finger scans, voice imprints, and fingerprint scans have provided hospitals and other medical centers with a means to gain access to protected areas that are off limits to non-employees or visitors.

One of the main benefits of implementing healthcare biometrics authentication systems is that they are time saving. Because the healthcare personnel are authorized by the system to gain access to a particular area, there is no need to physically check each person to see if they qualify as an employee or visitor. This saves time in that there is no longer the need to screen visitors using standard forms. The biometric verification system can determine whether or
