Who are we?

The Pharmacy Informatics and Technology (formerly Electronic Medication Management) Specialty Practice group is a network of SHPA members who work to optimise patient care and outcomes when deploying, building, analysing data or using digital systems such as electronic medication records, e-prescribing, dispensing software, automated dispensing systems, smart pumps and pharmacy robots.

Why join?

Join the Pharmacy Informatics and Technology Interest Group if you want to access our network of informatics and digital health experts and peers through the Pharmacy Informatics and Technology Discussion Forum.
