Hi everyone,

I'm excited to announce that a new Learning Program has just gone live on The EPMA Hub:

“Understanding dm+d: Coding Medicines in Digital Healthcare”

This free program is perfect for anyone working in or exploring EPMA and Clinical Informatics who wants to understand the essential role of the NHS Dictionary of Medicines and Devices (dm+d). Whether you’re a pharmacist, digital lead, or informatics professional, understanding dm+d is crucial for ensuring interoperability, safety, and structured prescribing across clinical systems.

What the program covers:

• What is the dm+d and why it matters

• How dm+d fits into EPMA systems

• The structure of dm+d entries (VMPs, AMPs, etc.)

• Key use cases in clinical informatics and pharmacy

• Resources to explore dm+d data and keep up to date

This course is designed to be beginner-friendly but detailed enough for those looking to strengthen their technical knowledge.
