In their just released “2016 National Patient Misidentification Report,” the Ponemon Institute finds that patient misidentification can result in severe medical errors, denied medical claims, and costly clean-up of duplicate and overlaid medical records. View this webinar to learn the findings of this study and the implications of patient misidentification for hospitals.
Highlights include:
- Clinicians spend up to 30 minutes or more per shift searching for accurate patient charts
- 35% of hospital denied claims are the direct result of patient identification errors
- Positive patient identification can dramatically reduce medical errors and revenue loss
