Pharmaceutical Stock Information Management System
The SAI Kosovo audit covered digitizing the management of pharmaceutical stock in healthcare institutions to supply medicines and disposable materials to patients from essential and non-essential lists. It was revealed that the system was not fully implemented in all healthcare units, like pharmacies in hospital wards and clinics, as well as Family Medicine Centers.

The Pharmaceutical Stock Management System enables the management of the supply process of medicines and medicinal materials, starting from central level institutions to health institutions and up to distribution to the patient.
