Data exchange in the Healthcare sector

The healthcare sector is under constant pressure to provide high-quality care at lower costs. It is important to reduce errors and optimise processes. Exchanging correct and complete product data in a standardised manner certainly contributes to this. Two types of data can be exchanged

Master Data

Using the GS1 Global Data Synchronisation Network (GS1 GDSN), you can exchange correct and up-to-date product data with your trading partners worldwide.

Through the network, you can synchronise specific healthcare information, but also e.g. Logistical information as well as web links to digital files with trading partners.
 

Transactional data

GS1 Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) allows your computer system to exchange transaction data with your trading partners' computer systems. 
Simplify your processes with electronic processing of commercial, logistical or financial data
