Introduction to the Canadian Clinical Drug Data Set

This presentation teaches how the Canadian Clinical Drug Data Set (CCDD) provides a consistent approach to the identification and naming of medications and a limited number of medical devices. This material is designed for anyone interested in learning about how the CCDD will be part of the Infoway PrescribeITTM solution to enable the safe and secure electronic ordering of prescription medications in Canada.

This presentation will cover:

• Why the CCDD was needed and is intended to be used
• Where to access the CCDD and how to join the on-going conversations that inform how content is added and created as part of the CCDD
