Modern healthcare is stamped with pressure to live up to high requirements ranging the traceability of the working sequence, such as the careful sterilization of the medication and treatments administered on patients to the continuously increasing cost pressures of streamlining processes. In this regard, the entrance of the well-rounded scanner smartSACNNDY would help – in fact, it is the perfect solution for all the assignments that could be given. Thanks to its handy design, the smartSCANNDY could sit in or be clipped onto every coat pocket in the clinic and one could simply feel that it is ready at all times to fulfill its given assignments.
CODABLOCK and HIBC, as well as Pharmacode and Datamatrix, all companies in the healthcare field are working within a time when retail's most commonly used barcode type is EAN.

RFID technology is also increasingly becoming root in the healthcare industry, especially since it helps to accurately distinguish between original drugs and plagiarists no matter how sophisticated they may be. The smartSCANNDY has in addition to its basic competencies, the ability to decode all well-known barcodes and comes with an integrated RFID reader to complete its capturing spectrum. RFID technology will also flawlessly recognize the patient that is to be operated on when he or she is wearing a transponder ID card or a RFID-armband. Regarding hospital logistics, the implementation of barcode technology also involves palm pilots, which together allows for the smartSCANNDY using its built-in bluetooth communication chip to simultaneously transfer data to the computer while it is being scanned. At wish, the smartSCANNDY with its cap removed will reveal a small touchscreen stick that eases navigation on the palm pilot.
