The future of the healthcare industry is increasingly being shaped by data and analytics. That’s why, for this episode of Owning the Future of Healthcare by Health Catalyst, host Daniel Litwin was joined by Farhana Nakhooda, Health Catalyst Senior Vice President of Healthcare and Life Sciences for APAC, who shared her influential insights.

In particular, Nakhooda contributed to an in-depth discussion about the organization’s impact on the efficient and equitable use of data and analytics in the Asia-Pacific region, or APAC.

Because the region is so large, Nakhooda said it’s impossible to generalize about universal trends in the area. However, when viewed through the lens of developed and developing markets, some easier-to-identify groupings and trends emerge.

While developed markets are more prepared for analytics than their developing counterparts thanks to, in many cases, years of EMR use, that doesn’t mean the adoption of more robust analytics will be simple. For example, digitization varies greatly among even developed markets, which can lead to implementation challenges.

Among developing markets, work is still centralized around enabling data capture in the first place.

Even though these segments of the region are at different stages of preparedness and adoption, Nakhooda said they do have some things in common, such as a requirement to share data with their governments.

Health Catalyst is working to help the region increase understanding of data security and the structure around data sharing and governance, as well as to help increase data and analytics literacy in the region, which is shining a spotlight on the power of data in improving outcomes and more.

Censis now reads da Vinci 2D codes to count arm uses

Censis now reads da Vinci 2D codes to count arm uses

Censis Technologies told CtUC 2026 attendees that CensiTrac has read the 2D matrix code on da Vinci arms since April, so robotic arms carry use counts without a second mark. The session built a business case for CensiTrac Advanced around marked assembly, clinic inventory ownership and par levels, with a 2021 BMJ Quality & Safety study putting missing instruments at 17.6% of assembly defects.

  • 01CensiTrac has counted da Vinci arm uses from the code that already comes on each arm since April, with no laser or etch added.
  • 02Hospitals told Censis they want clinic inventory tracking mainly to prove sterile processing did not lose the instruments.
  • 03Missing instruments were 17.6% of assembly tray defects at a 700-bed hospital in a 2021 BMJ Quality & Safety study, a problem the presenter tied to marked assembly.

AdvaMed digital health board approves data access best practices

AdvaMed digital health board approves data access best practices

AdvaMed's Digital Health Tech board approved voluntary Data Access Principles & Best Practices, announced October 28, setting four principles for how medtech companies and U.S. health systems share data.

  • 01The framework covers data vendors need to implement, monitor and improve technology, with expectations for transparency, stewardship and de-identification.
  • 02Watch for the first RFPs, security questionnaires or data use agreements that cite the principles by name; a voluntary document gains weight only when buyers adopt it.

Nearly 500 hospitals track shortage-affected segments via RFID

Nearly 500 hospitals track shortage-affected segments via RFID

According to Bluesight, nearly 500 hospitals track almost 4,000 shortage-affected medication segments in their RFID systems. Checks of dispensing cabinets have been missing that RFID-tracked supply. Gilman argues that bringing RFID data in next to cabinet data gives more complete usage rates and days-on-hand calculations, though the gain could depend on whether systems connect at the transaction level.

  • 01Gilman argues cabinet-only counts can miss RFID stock, fueling false urgency and emergency purchases, and can skew both stock-on-hand and usage-rate inputs in days-on-hand math.
  • 02RFID is no longer limited to kit and tray management: nearly 500 hospitals already track almost 4,000 shortage-affected medication segments in their RFID systems.
  • 03For operators weighing a merged feed, the key question could be whether RFID usage flows into the days-on-hand calculation at the transaction level or sits beside cabinet data as a static count.
