Nothing to install, easy to setup
PharmScanner runs on your computer's existing browser, so you don't need any expensive additional hardware or software, other than 2D barcode readers (if you don't have any yet, we can help with that, too!). We can also help you get set up via phone and email, to minimise disruption to your business.
Minimal disruption to your systems and workflows
Designed by community pharmacists to minimise any disruption to your existing ways of working, and to be as straightforward to use as possible, PharmScanner can make FMD work for you. Aggregate bag labels and aggregate by barcodes to make decommissioning medication at the point of handing out to your patients as simple and fast as possible.
£10 per month for pharmacies/wholesalers/dispensing doctors/GP surgeries/clinics/hospitals with no minimum term contract
As pharmacists, we understand the financial pressures facing community pharmacy, and we're also nice people. That is why PharmScanner costs just £10 per month (discounts are available for groups), and we don't make you sign any minimum term contract. You can stop using PharmScanner at any time without worrying about paying a penalty or a notice period, e.g. in case FMD is no longer required.

Recommended 2D barcode scanners
Based on our testing, and taking into account price, ease of use, ease of setup and durability, we can recommend two models of 2D barcode scanners which are fully compatible with PharmScanner.
Both of our recommended scanners are able to be plugged into a USB slot on a computer or laptop. We recommend handheld scanners because (compared to desktop, "supermarket-style" scanners) they are better value, take up less of your valuable desk space, and are more maneuverable (especially for when trying to scan multiple packs of medication).
If you already have a 2D scanner which is not on this list, or want to discuss other options e.g. wireless scanners, please contact us!
