>Has anyone considered such vital medical supplies as insulin?
>There are a number of difficulties - and hoping to have deliveries next
week might well be too late.
We have recieved a request recently from a company who we provide medical
cover for, to ensure that we are Year 2000 compliant. As part of this we
were asked to ensure that our supplyers were Y2K compliant.
>2. Ordering - how Y2000 are the local pharmacy's computerised ordering
systems?
I have contacted our major supplyer, i.e. the local chemist and have had
comfirmation from GEHIS who provide IT services for:-
AAH Hospital Service
AAH Pharmaceuticals Ltd
Hill Pharmacy
LLoyds Chemists, and others
That they anticipate no interuption to normal service. And asuure me that
they have a Y2K programme that will be complete by June 1999.
Our letter from them has been adequate assureance that we should not expect
problems with our drug suplies.
