The electronic medical prescription system (Prescrição Eletrónica Médica or PEM) was unavailable for 18 minutes on Tuesday morning. The Shared Services of the Ministry of Health (Serviços Partilhados do Ministério da Saúde or SPMS) attributed the instability to ongoing maintenance following a power failure last Friday.
