Every hospital knows the importance of data retention, especially when it comes to compliance with Joint Commission standards. Yet many organizations are now facing a serious compliance risk they didn’t see coming:
Steris has announced the sunset of ReadyTracker — and all data will be deleted by February 2026.
For hospitals using ReadyTracker for tissue tracking, this isn’t just a technology phase-out. It’s a looming threat to compliance, accreditation, and patient safety records.
Why This Isn’t Just Another Software Retirement
Tissue tracking isn’t optional. It’s tightly regulated, and hospitals must retain records for 10 years or more to meet Joint Commission and state-level requirements.
With ReadyTracker shutting down, thousands of hospitals could find themselves scrambling to:
Locate backup data (if any)
Reconstruct years of documentation
Explain compliance gaps during audits
That’s not a place any compliance officer wants to be.
Now Is the Time to Act — Not 2026
Many hospitals are already planning their migration now — because as the deadline nears, implementation calendars will book up fast. Waiting too long could mean:
Limited vendor support
Rushed implementations
Incomplete data migrations
Increased risk of falling out of compliance
