healthsystemCIO.com is the sole online-only publication dedicated to exclusively and comprehensively serving the information needs of healthcare CIOs.

Making sure patients are matched with their correct chart should be a basic tenet in healthcare. However, the lack of a unique national patient identifier (NPI) means health systems must leverage a myriad of technologies and techniques to avoid giving the right care to the wrong person and the possible harm that would result. In this timely webinar, we’ll hear from leaders who are working hard to solve this problem both in their health systems today and, from a policy perspective, for the future. Panelists will also provide an update on the current efforts by CHIME and others to establish an NPI.
