Are you ready for a recall?

February 04, 2020

From the January/February 2020 issue of HealthCare Business News magazine

“When we present and hear that health systems aren’t measuring the percentage of recall responses received within specific parameters it highlights the great opportunity healthcare has for improving its recall resolution timeframe,” continued Geibel. “As supply chain professionals it’s very easy to see how the opportunity in healthcare recalls is highlighting a greater need for full product integration – how we buy, how we assimilate our purchases, how we track orders, and how we document what, where and when an item is used.”

Geibel concludes that as healthcare systems adapt to changing reimbursement models and new patient-care initiatives, recall management programs should evolve as well. “This opportunity in healthcare will be further highlighted with increased telehealth visits, population aging, and the proactive, effective treatments that are meeting patients where they are located and are being encouraged with population health models and value-based payments,” she said. “The results of our work will be highlighted as the public demand for quality transparency matures and payment for quality programs progress.”
