Digitise healthcare product information to improve procurement and supply chain management

As a public purchasing organisation, Resah aims to facilitate access to the ordering, management and identification of products exchanged between hospitals and manufacturers.
Digitise healthcare product information to improve procurement and supply chain management

For global consistency, it is essential to share global information on products directly from manufacturers to hospitals, using a single format.

To support manufacturers and hospitals in the digitisation of product information, Resah implemented the first interoperable electronic catalogue for the French health sector: eCat-Santé. Based on GS1 standards, this catalogue enables the input and output of comprehensive, standardised and up-to-date product information. The solution provides a win-win by reducing the time and costs associated with product information management.
