Smart Packaging and Electronic Patient Information In-house Training

Course overview

Increased use of SMART technologies has become ever more prevalent in the delivery of healthcare solutions as well as in the electronic delivery of Patient Information (e-PIL) and leaflets (e-leaflets).  These technologies have grown in importance providing patients and medical staff with product data, reminders, healthcare delivery and diagnostic tools. 

Regulatory authorities now permit and indeed encourage the delivery by electronic mechanisms and connectivity with patients and sometimes healthcare providers, others will undoubtably follow suit. Organisations that prepare early will be able to actively leverage the benefits sooner; improvements in patient outcomes, product delivery efficiencies and eco/cost improvements. Indeed, these businesses will be seen as ‘early adopters’ and innovators that others will seek to follow.

This course will provide the attendees with an overview of the current technologies, the patient and societal benefits and some building blocks for the establishment and delivery of e-PIL and SMART strategic initiatives, providing insight as to where organisations may be most significantly impacted.

This course is part of our GxP training (Good x Practice) course collection, which features a variety of topic areas to ensure you comply with the most recent quality guidelines. For more information on the latest EU GMP regulations, see our GMP training course covering the Annex 1.
