| Following the federal decision to deploy, the
SNS will typically arrive by air or ground in two phases. The
first phase shipment is called a 12-hour Push Package. “12”
because it will arrive in 12-hours or less, “push” because a
state need only ask for help—not for specific items, and
“package” because the program will ship a complete package of
medical materiel—to include nearly everything a state will need
to respond to a broad range of threats. Also available are
inventory supplies known as Vendor Managed Inventory, or VMI
packages. VMI packages can be tailored to provide
pharmaceuticals, vaccines, medical supplies and/or medical
products specific to the suspected or confirmed agent or
combination of agent |
