This course provides introductory training on the Adulterated Product Monitoring (APM) functionality of the Public Health Information System (PHIS), which is used to document industry notification that an establishment has received or shipped adulterated product that is in commerce. Previously, only OIEA and OFO District Office personnel have used APM for reporting. However, this course is designed for in-plant CSIs and PHVs who may now also have a role in APM reporting. This training focuses on how to utilize the APM functionality in PHIS as outlined in FSIS Directive 8140.1, Revision 2. It covers background on the requirements for reporting the receipt or shipment of adulterated product, the active PHIS reporting tools, how Draft Reports are initiated, and the information IPP will enter to contribute to reports.
*Disclaimer: The scenarios/examples used are for training purposes only and do not represent real incidents of receipt or shipment of adulterated or misbranded product.
