Medical-supply company Henry Schein has agreed to distribute implantable radio frequency identification chips to doctors’ offices across the country–the first major sales push for the technology since the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved it for medical use last month.
The rice grain-size devices, called VeriChips, enable doctors and other medical staff to instantly retrieve patients’ medical records by scanning chips injected into the fatty tissue in their arms–much like a clerk scanning a can of peas at the grocery store.
