Anticipate That RFID Will Become More Common

April 2023

You’ll hear more about using radio-frequency identification (RFID) to track meds...due to increased accuracy and efficiency.

It works by using a device that transmits and receives radio waves to communicate with RFID tags on med packaging.

These tags store info, such as NDCs, lot numbers, and expiration dates. Tags are either included on packaging from manufacturers...or pharmacy staff must place tags on the med packaging.
