Unique Medical Industry Challenges: Highly Regulated, Critical Assets, Smaller Labels
The healthcare industry is a highly regulated market with numerous standards, requirements, and levels of compliance to ensure safety for a broad range of items, including product and patient safety. Barcode labeling data and formatting must also comply with strict industry standards. Medical industry barcode challenges encompass:
- The rejection of products with serialization requirements if the correct data and documentation is not supplied.
- The loss of critical and private patient information, product data, and assets.
- The growth of small-sized 2D barcode labels that can cause issues such as a tiny smudge or wrinkle, which may not be visible to the human eye, but could lead to bad or unreadable barcodes.
- Medications received with unvalidated barcode labels could be returned to the supplier, often with a hefty fine for faulty barcodes.
That’s a lot to account for. Let’s find out how our ODV-2 Barcode Inspection Systems help.
