  VMP ‘<Drug Form>’ coded attribute in dm+d – your thoughts and views are needed please

  The Pharmacy Terminology team continue to seek feedback from dm+d users to understand if and how you use the VMP ‘<Drug_Form>’ coded attribute within the VMP concept class. We are undertaking a piece of discovery work as part of UK Medicines Terminology Futures. Please help by responding to this very short survey. The survey should only take a few minutes to complete and your feedback is invaluable to us so we would be very grateful if you are able to respond. Please be assured that any personal details you submit will be treated in strict confidence.

  Thank you in advance and if you have any questions about completing this survey, please contact: nhsdigital.ukmeds@nhs.net.
