E-drug: Quality use of medicines indicators  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear all,

The Australian Government has produced a second edition of the  
Manual of Indicators to measure the quality use of medicines  
component of Australia's National Medicines Policy

Pdf copies are available at:  
[http://www.health.gov.au/haf/nmp/pdf/manualqum.pdf](http://www.health.gov.au/haf/nmp/pdf/manualqum.pdf)

This document builds on the first edition, but includes new  
indicators for new initiatives that are underway in Australia. This  
document only outlines the indicators. There has been a previous  
publication where that reported the results of their measurement. A  
powerpoint presentation of some of the results of the indicator  
measurement is available at:  
[http://www.health.gov.au/haf/nmp/pdf/qumindicators.ppt](http://www.health.gov.au/haf/nmp/pdf/qumindicators.ppt)

Other quality use of medicines publications are available at:  
[http://www.health.gov.au/haf/nmp/publications.htm](http://www.health.gov.au/haf/nmp/publications.htm)

Hard copies of the Manual of Indicators are available from the  
Commonwealth Department of Health. Please contact the  
department via this e-mail address: pharm@health.gov.au.
