The Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI) and the Patented Medicine Prices Review Board (PMPRB) are working collaboratively to develop and to maintain the NPDUIS; each organization taking the lead in areas in which that organization has the expertise/experience. NPDUIS, an information system housing data from public plans across Canada, will be a major first step in developing a national data repository for prescription drug data in Canada. The NPDUIS will provide accurate and timely national prescription drug utilization information to support public drug programs in the establishment of sound pharmaceutical policies and the effective management of Canada's public drug benefit programs.

OBS

L'Institut canadien d'information sur la santé (ICIS) et le Conseil d'examen du prix des médicaments brevetés (CEPMB) travailleront de pair afin d'établir et de maintenir le SNIUMP, chacun des organismes prenant la direction des initiatives dans ses domaines de compétences. Le SNIUMP, un système national d'information capable d'accepter des données des régimes publics au Canada, constitue une première étape importante dans le développement de la base de données nationale sur les médicaments prescrits. Le SNIUMP fournira de l'information précise et opportune à l'échelle nationale sur l'utilisation des médicaments prescrits afin d'appuyer les régimes publics de médicaments dans l'élaboration de politiques pharmaceutiques avisées et dans la gestion efficace des régimes publics d'assurance-médicaments au Canada.
