Healthcare

The health sector is currently undergoing major changes. On the one hand, regulations require better traceability of healthcare products, which forces manufacturers and healthcare facilities to start dematerializing their product data exchange processes for greater reliability and better tracking. On the other hand, healthcare logistics is taking on a new dimension with the digitization of supply chain, which is opening up new perspectives for players in the sector.

 

A sector making its digital revolution

The Ségur Digital Use in Health Care Facilities program, led by the Ministry of Health, is encouraging healthcare facilities to upgrade their information systems to provide greater functionality and interoperability. The ultimate goal is to ensure better patient care through the development of digital data exchanges.

 

Traceability of healthcare products contributes to better patient safety

In Europe, the European Commission is gradually requiring manufacturers to contribute to the EUDAMED* database. Each medical device must now be coded with a unique identifier (UDI*) in order to be recognized and traced in the event of a related health alert.

EUDAMED: European Database on Medical Devices

UDI – Unique Device Identification

On the drug side, the serialization reform requires each box of medication to be scanned in order to verify the presence of its unique identifier (datamatrix) in the France MVO national database, before deactivating it, and thus fighting against falsification.

Automate exchanges to optimize purchasing and supply

In addition to regulatory obligations, supplying medicines and medical devices to healthcare institutions generates a significant volume of daily interactions and exchanges with purchasing groups, which require manual processing, by telephone, email, non-interoperable EDI or fax.

Our specifications guarantee automatic, secure and real-time processing of data flows exchanged with your partners.
