PROCESS – OPERATIONAL AWARENESS
Geisinger
Operational Awareness around UDI:
•  Has allowed us to rank the priority address UDI GAPs, such as:
•  Insuring our systems are agnostic to UDI to minimize clinician point-of-care impact upon
disposition of devices.
•  Accepting non-GS1, but driving for all GS1
Mayo
Kaiser Permanente
•  UDI Sharing to EHR to Billing to Patient Portal
•  UDI language is being incorporated into contract templates
–  UDI in Sourcing & Contracting
–  GPO & GDSN alignment
•  Expanded use of GTIN / GLN in Purchase Orders and Invoices
•  Better understanding how UDI could be used in billing
•  Scanning GTIN and serial number into OR System
•  Project well under way to incorporate GTIN and Expiration date via. interface from
OR System to EMR

•  Patient charging
•  Cost accounting
Mercy Hospital – Operating Room
•  Products used during the procedure documented on
the patient chart

SYSTEM/TECHNOLOGY PREPARATION
•  Working to ensure the most efficient path to relate or store non-transactional UDI
attributes
–  The GDSN data pool will be the majority of our storage
•  Building connections to FDA GUDID, or our GPO may be an alternative for nonGS1
•  UDI has exposed GAPs in our information systems
–  Ensure our Inventory systems can notify in case of a recall
–  Ensuring our supply chain transactional systems can feed the clinical systems in the
most efficient manner
–  Ensure our clinical systems can notify if patients affected by a recall or device
warning (MRI-awareness)
•  Efforts around UDI in the Product Recall
–  UDI Value stream mapping exercise to begin with key Med_Surg Supplier
•  Efforts in UDI Capture & Expand Use
–  Validation that Clinical Point of Use Systems/ Interfaces/ and ERP support GS1
Standards
•  Leveraging our GPO for our GDSN – they are updating information as available daily
through the use of our on line Item request process
