The global healthcare industry is transforming—quickly transitioning from proprietary solutions to a foundation of open, global GS1 standards.
Since 2015, medical device manufacturers have been scrambling to ensure they are successfully complying with various governments’ rules, regulations and timelines for Unique Device Identification (UDI). Moreover, they often use multiple systems to do so, and as a result, duplicate efforts instead of boosting efficiencies!
Different rules in different countries pose unique challenges to medical device companies. Meanwhile, more and more agencies will be implementing new rules over the next 5 years—and manufacturers often find themselves feeling in the dark with what these requirements are and how regulators want to receive them.
While the industry has achieved many milestones, there are a lot of unanswered questions in the healthcare realm. Join us for a compelling webinar where you will learn the answers to:
- How are companies successfully creating, updating and sharing UDI data?
- What systems, processes and tools are helping manufacturers satisfy individual data needs of both regulators and customers?
- Where can people go to get educated, find best practices and drive efficiencies?
Speakers: Jason Gunn and Mike Crabb

Governments, regulators, hospitals and retail pharmacies in more than 70 countries are driving implementation of GS1 standards in healthcare and many of the implementations require solution providers to support GS1 standards in their systems and processes to provide appropriate solutions to their customers.
GS1 Healthcare will soon give the access on its Solution Partners webpage to an interactive map which will display all our Solution Partners per country.
