Overview

Thanks to the 2D barcode technology, self service systems are becoming more versatile and omnipresent. Take pharmacy for example, in effort to reduce lines at the counter, major drug chains all over the world are starting to use self-serving kiosks to lend helping hands to their pharmacists; not only do these kiosks allow price checks on barcode items, they let patients review drug information such as dosage, ingredients, side effects, etc. Embedded with a 2D barcode scanner, the kiosks also enable patients to scan a QR code sent in advance to them by the pharmacy. The code associated with the QR code allows the pharmacy to prepare the desired prescription while the customers are waiting in line.

In other words, the kiosk is helping pharmacists with all their routine daily works giving them more time counseling and giving recommendations to their patients on medications and clinical services as well as answering questions that might be more crucial to their health.

With pharmacies becoming more accessible to consumers, more and more patients are turning to their local pharmacists when they have questions about their health. And with a smart self service system in place, pharmacists now have more time to interact with their patients. It helps them better connect with their patients and improves the health care they provide.
