Varia

Leonidas will be at the EAHP congress and will present the short paper on Falsified Medicines

= Discussion on white paper

• Structure: Goal is to finish asap. Scope is more than enough to make profiles.

• Data requirements: Best to use a high-level analysis, and not a special section for the detailed analysis. Jose will update the document accordingly.

• How does the white paper and use cases correspond to profiles?
  • A: The goal is to list the use cases, aggregate requirements, and then re-group them in abstract actors and features that can be then recombined to implement any use case.

Document content and Actions

• UBP name can be removed from the document

• About relating scanning of barcodes to the information they provide:
  • Esther will look at 12 and 13 to add indication that the information from the barcodes comes from scanning.

• About using GS1 only vs also HL7:
  • Esther confirms that GS1 is devoted to external transactions (extra mural), so may not be adequate for internal transactions.
  • We should investigate to see if we can use GS1 also for internal use.
    • If not, we can also decide that first release of the profiles would be targeted mostly at external transactions.
  • Then we decide whether to go with one standard or both.

• • GS1 has also aligned their functional model, wich means that GS1 XML, EANCOM.. are aligned and can be interchanged.

• Transactions and priorities:

1. . Resupply request
