Zusammenfassung:	A system and method assigning a medical device to a medical facility is disclosed. Responsive to determining that a wireless connection being formed between a medical device and a wireless communication device inside a medical treatment area, a determination is made that the medical device moved into the medical treatment area and a determination is made as to whether the medical device is currently in an existing inventory associated with the medical facility. When the medical device is not determined to be within the inventory, device identity information is automatically obtained from the medical device and a new medical device record is created for the medical device and stored in the inventory.
