Quality Management: Exceeding Standards in Healthcare
Implementing Excellence Across Operations
Whilst the process of obtaining Marketing Authorization for a medicinal product in the EU is well harmonized, the quality management system and license requirements for companies handling medicinal products (manufacturing, import, distribution etc.) differ considerably between EU member states. The requirements depend mainly on the specific set-up between the involved companies and the ownership of products at the different points in time.
