Join ADLM for 2 half-day educational workshops on decentralization and point-of-care testing (POCT) in Guadalajara, Mexico and Santiago, Chile The programs have been developed by ADLM's Latin America Subcommittee providing education design oversight and is sponsored by Roche. As healthcare decentralization expands in Latin America, point-of-care testing (POCT) is playing an increasingly critical role in both hospital and non-hospital settings. Yet, gaps in regulation and quality management remain with 20% of laboratories report insufficient guidance (based on ADLM Latin American Working Group survey of experts in the field). The following workshops are designed to bring leading experts to two Latin American cities to share strategies on navigating regulatory frameworks and overcoming barriers in decentralized systems to improve patient access and bring POCT innovations to communities that need them most.
