Benefits of Patients and Physicians Connection Network
Nationwide reporting system
The Patient and Physicians Connection Network is a nationwide voluntary reporting system that allows patients and health care providers too confidentially and anonymously report serious, unexpected adverse events or medication errors that occur during the course of treatment.
Enhance patient safety
The Network is designed to help improve patient safety by identifying and analyzing patterns of adverse events and medication errors. The information collected through the Network is used to develop educational materials and tools that can be used by patients and health care providers to prevent similar events from occurring in the future.
The Network is a valuable resource for both patients and physicians, and provides an important avenue for communication between the two groups. By working together, we can improve patient safety and reduce the incidence of preventable medical errors.
