REMINDER ABOUT THE END OF THE CONSIGNMENT SYSTEM<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As part of the rollout of the sole human tissue distributor mandate, the consignment system\u2014in which supplier-owned products are stored on site at health care institutions\u2014is being retired. This decision was made to ensure the quality and traceability of the products that H\u00e9ma-Qu\u00e9bec distributes to health care institutions. As a result, all inventory that has not been used or purchased by December 2, 2024, must be returned to suppliers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although the consignment system is being discontinued, health care institutions may still maintain minimum inventory levels (safety stock) for products deemed essential to meet routine and emergency demand based on delivery lead times. Inventory maintained as safety stock belongs to the health care institution, not the supplier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

H\u00e9ma-Qu\u00e9bec strongly encourages health care institutions to maintain an adequate safety stock for all products that may be required sooner than the standard lead time. The average standard lead time for human tissue products is 72 hours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
