THE Federal Dept of Health will implement a transitional Electronic National Residential Medication Charts (eNRMC) arrangement from tomorrow, in order to allow Residential Aged Care Services (RACSs) to begin adopting and benefiting from eNRMC products.
Legislation is being amended to allow the transition, enabling RACSs to use eNRMC products which meet the required technical specifications while prescription delivery services and dispensing software vendors continue to develop their products.
Information packs have been developed for pharmacists, prescribers, software vendors and RACSs to give an overview of what is required to participate under the transitional arrangement - for full details see health.gov.au.
