Material from FiMVO info meeting for End Users and IT Providers on Friday 2nd February 2018

On 2.2.18 we held a workshop for End Users and IT Providers.

We discussed where we are with the medicine verification system in Finland, now that we have only one year to go!

Maija Gohlke-Kokkonen, FiMVO’s General Manager welcomed us and spoke of contracting which is starting now.

Tero Vesa, FiMVO’s Technical Project Manager joined forces with Tim Stässer from Arvato to share the timeline of testing the Finnish project.

Paul Mills, from EMVO’S Operations Department talked us through the EU Hub and 3PLs and master data, providing a view from the larger European picture.

Tuula Avonius and Eeva Melama from Orion Pharma gave a detailed presentation on the effects of medicines verification in a pharma company, reminding us how it affects each stage of production, and how Finland and even Europe, is just a small part of many pharma companies.

To round up we were given two demos, to see how it will work live!

Mika Weckström from Receptum got snowed in so was unable to bring his scanner, but showed us the process.

Jukka Nurmi from Pharmadata scanned several product codes to show the different alerts that the system brings.

Thank you to everyone who participated, in person and by Skype! We are very sorry that our internet connection was plagued all day.

All material from the day is available here to download!
