EPN sets to improve how well members select, procure, distribute and store medicines and medical supplies to ensure access to quality products at a fair price.
It promotes members’ initiatives, especially Drug Supply Organization (DSO) and health care delivery organizations (CHAs and CHIs) to ensure that effective selection, procurement, distribution and storage are followed, and good distribution practice (GDP) and quality assurance (QA) systems are implemented.
EPN supports members through Global Pharma Health Fund (GPHF) Minilab to raise awareness among their health facilities on the threat of substandard and falsified (SF) medicines and the importance of quality of medicines.
