As already said the feature of UOM conversion exists in the Tryton
purchase/sale modules (which are not part of the standard gnuhealth
installation). You can e.g. easily define a new UOM P100 (pack of 100 units),
take it as standard UOM for the product, but sell it as unit. Tryton will
automatically calculate the according price.

I don't know, how well the purchase and sale modules will integrate with
gnuhealth, but that would be for me the way to go.

Cheers,
Mathias
