GS1's global standards for automatic identification through bar codes and radio frequency identification (RFID) provide the opportunity to make the health care supply chain more efficient, accurate and safer, said GS1.

Medication errors can be avoided by automatically matching product data to patient data. These standards also enable effective traceability and reduce counterfeiting, said GS1.

HL7's clinical interoperability standards, such as the Version 3 Messaging Standard, are designed to increase the effectiveness and efficiency in exchanging, managing and integrating electronic health care information, said GS1.

"GS1 is committed to the health care sector to facilitate the development and adoption of global supply chain standards, first and foremost to improve patient safety," said Michel van der Heijden, president Healthcare, GS1.
