Hidden in Plain Sight: The Counterfeit Crisis in Healthcare

Do you know for certain that every product in your hospital is authentic—or could counterfeits be slipping through undetected? On this episode of Power Supply, we're joined by Adam Bartlett, Director of Expert Services, Life Sciences & Pharmaceuticals at Resilinc, to explore how counterfeiting has become a trillion-dollar global industry targeting healthcare. From fake medications and nutraceuticals to sophisticated operations that slip counterfeit products into legitimate distribution channels, Adam breaks down how these networks operate, where the money often ends up, and why this matters for patient safety. He shares how technologies like AI, serialization, and digital product authentication are helping organizations fight back and what supply chain leaders need to know about protecting product integrity.
