Patient misidentification happens — here's what hospital executives can do about it
Patient misidentification happens — and more often than healthcare executives might think. Join Becker's Hospital Review editor-in-chief Molly Gamble and Aaron Miri, CIO and vice president of government relations at Imprivata, as they discuss the challenge and scope of patient misidentification in hospitals. Their conversation covers clinical and financial implications of identification mistakes as well as root causes for misidentification. Mr. Miri then sheds light on innovative strategies to address and prevent misidentification from occurring at any point in the patient journey, from registration through final billing.
