For supply chain leaders, clinical variation is one of the largest obstacles to quality outcomes. By improving data standardization within your IDN, you can improve the efficiency of your clinical operations, decrease disruptions in product availability, and ultimately improve patient care and outcomes. Implementing these data practices across your IDN requires strong collaboration between internal stakeholders. In this session, we’ll provide you with strategies to work with clinicians to implement increased data standardization and overcome the barriers to successful implementation.

Learning Objectives:

1. Describe the barriers to increased data standardization practices.
2. Outline steps to improve collaboration with clinicians.
3. Evaluate strategies to implement enhanced data standardization in your IDN.
