Global Traceability Standards

Objective: develop a suite of global standards (process and
technical standards) that enable GS1s Vision for Traceability in
Healthcare
Scope: Pharmaceuticals and medical devices - from point of production to point of use
Completed:
Global Traceability Standard for Healthcare (GTSH)
GTSH Implementation Guide (GTSH IG)
Training for Member Organisations
Pilot Global Traceability Conformance (GTC) Audit in
two hospitals
Gap analysis against GS1 System of Standards:
Visibility Standards and eCom Standards
Work Requests (2:WR 12-126 12-127) for Event Based
Traceability Standards Approved & in GSMP

Next steps:
Progress Event Based Traceability work through
GSMP to enhance EPCIS/Visibility standards to
enable Chain of Custody/Chain of Ownership
(CoC/CoO (aka Pedigree)) and Product Identifier
Authentication (PIA) Use Cases
GTC for Healthcare (2015/16)
GTSH & GTSH IG V2 (2016)
