Most newer hospitals, like the one at which I practice, have tube systems that work very well, however, most older hospitals, like the one at which I trained, do not. Retrofitting an older hospital with a tube system would be very expensive if not impossible. These robots might have a role in these older institutions. Although, as noted above, there might be problems with urine specimens disappearing, and an army of young healthy volunteer couriers would probably work better, and could also do double duty delivering drugs.
