On World Patient Safety Day, RLDatix pledges to support
Patients for Patient Safety US in its efforts to reduce preventable
harm across healthcare organizations nationwide.
CHICAGO, Sept. 17,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- RLDatix, the leading global
provider of healthcare operations software and services, announced
a formal partnership with Patients for Patient Safety US (PFPS US),
a branch of the World Health Organization's international PFPS
program. Together, RLDatix and PFPS US will collaborate on
strategic initiatives aimed at reducing preventable harm by
enhancing patient engagement, transparency and accountability
across hospitals and health systems.
"Uniting people and organizations across the healthcare industry
behind a common cause is vital to achieving our goal of safer, more
empathic care," said Tim McDonald,
Chief Patient Safety & Risk Officer at RLDatix. "We're honored
to support Patients for Patient Safety US in their proactive
efforts to raise awareness around patient safety and drive progress
toward zero harm."
Cross-sector collaboration has consistently proven effective in
driving meaningful policy changes, from hospitals to the federal
level. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services recently
issued its final rule on the Patient Safety Structural Measure,
mandating systemic changes to improve patient safety in healthcare
organizations. This legislation is the result of extensive
research, lobbying and awareness efforts by leading industry
groups, including PFPS US.
"We've closely followed RLDatix's advocacy for patient safety,
both nationally and globally," said Martin
Hatlie, co-founder of PFPS US. "We're thrilled about this
collaboration and the opportunity to make further strides toward
eliminating preventable harm."
RLDatix is proud to support PFPS US' World Patient Safety Day
2024 programming, taking place in Washington, D.C. from September 15-17.
