Asembia, a health-care service, contracting and technology company, is using an RFID system to manage the inventory dating and expiration of its high-value medications. Since launching the UHF RFID system this year, both the organization's distribution arm and its pharmacy members have been better able to manage the dating and expirations of inventory. The process of scanning inventory has eliminated the manual labor required for pharmacy employees to count each unit, enabling the pharmacies to save time and are to provide the appropriate data in a timely fashion. Learn how the RFID-based solution is being used to track the movement and status of specialty medications as they flow from the distribution center to pharmacies and to patients, thereby preventing the dispensing of expired products.
