Managing Actual Therapeutic Moieties (ATM) - hmislk/hmis GitHub Wiki
Introduction to Actual Therapeutic Moieties (ATM)
Actual Therapeutic Moieties (ATM) in the Electronic Medical Records (EMR) system are specific, tangible representations of drugs, directly linked to their conceptual counterparts, the Virtual Therapeutic Moieties (VTM). While VTMs represent the general idea of a medicinal substance, ATMs specify the actual drug product used in clinical practice. Managing ATMs is crucial for accurate prescription and inventory management.

Decamox (Related to VTM: Amoxicillin): VTM Link: Amoxicillin
Glycomet (Related to VTM: Metformin): VTM Link: Metformin
Atorva (Related to VTM: Atorvastatin): VTM Link: Atorvastatin
