Minutes

• An from Digile has worked on the SAM database and has plenty of drug data expertise

• BCFI, the green booklet used by pharmacists & doctors

• BCFI was structured in a Repertorium drug tables

• SAM is a consortium: APB, RIZIV, FOD VG, FAGG to put all drugs in one database

• VMP, VMP-groups are concepts were implemented through guidance from BCFI

• public SAM viewer was developed by Digile, visualisation in an intuitive manner that has the full SAMv2 content (2 updates a day - not realtime), is public

• feedback option is available as there are still some data quality issues & inconsistencies with SAM
• difficult follow-up on raised issues
• overview of VOs-groups to improve easier access to these data that was not open to the public before

• ISO IDMP gap analysis on SAM V2 has been done

• ISO IDMP does not present a fixed vocabulary
• objective is to map SAMv2 to ISO IDMP database

• José did not have time to prepare the use cases due to personal circumstances
• upcoming problem of catalog of medicines: there are CNK, CTI, ATC and plenty of other codes, also virtual therapautic group as called in Belgium (FAGG provides the codes) ; VMPP is abandoned in Belgium

• the codes are at different level and different granularities
• which codes will we use in the medication scheme ?
