Track and trace for access to safe medicines

Transcription

1 Track and trace for access to safe medicines Every day millions of patients across the world depend on safe medication. Unfortunately, presence of falsified medication is a huge threat to patient safety, especially in Africa. The WHO estimates that 10% of medication distributed in low and middle income countries could be fake. Falsified medicine negatively impact patient safety, might lead to loss of lives, will have economic impact and will result in less trust in the healthcare system. The demand for medication, due to a growing and ageing population, puts an extra pressure on the safety and efficiency of the healthcare system. Currently, due to lack of visibility in product movement between trading partners and within organisations many inefficiencies in the pharmaceutical supply chain can be identified. Gaps in forecasting and distribution result in limited availability of key pharmaceuticals in hospital, long procurement lead time, problems in record-keeping, forecasted data quality, timely requisition and consumption reporting, no real-time stock status information at national level, wastage due to expiry and damage, theft and an inefficient recall process. GS1 standards and barcodes are tools that can help supply chain partners, including healthcare professionals making sure that the patient receives the right medication. Manufacturers, suppliers, wholesalers, distributors, logistics providers, solution providers, industry associations, (inter-) governmental bodies and regulators all recognise this and are working, together with healthcare professionals, to drive change in the healthcare supply chain and clinical environment. Join these stakeholders - from across the healthcare continuum and across the world - and attend our conference in May 2018, Addis Ababa to: - Listen to world leaders showcase GS1 standards implementations from their organisations - Learn from the experts who have experience with implementation - Discuss latest regulatory and trading partner requirements - Enjoy a unique neutral environment to network and learn from your peers Most importantly, become part of a united community working to ensure GS1 standards can make a difference for every one of us, as ultimately we are all patients. About GS1 Healthcare GS1 Healthcare is a voluntary, global Healthcare User Group leading the healthcare sector to the successful development and implementation of global standards by bringing together experts in healthcare to enhance patient safety and supply chain efficiencies.
