Digitally redeem prescriptions with an e-prescription scanner
Integrate a Data Matrix barcode scanner into your e-prescription app or online pharmacy.
Scan e-prescriptions and forward them to pharmacies
In Germany, doctors can prescribe medicines via electronic prescriptions linked to a patient’s health insurance card. Unlike traditional paper prescriptions, these no longer have to be sent to online pharmacies by post.
You can also allow patients to upload their e-prescription via your app and then forward it to a local pharmacy. This makes it easy to order medication in advance, and patients can pick it up as soon as it arrives.
If the e-prescription is stored on the smartphone, it can be called up at any time and printed out if required. A Data Matrix code with a unique token ensures that a prescription cannot be redeemed more than once.

Data Matrix Code Scanner for your mobile app
The Data Matrix codes on the e-prescription encode unique tokens that pharmacies can use to download the actual prescription from the central e-prescription server.
In addition to the large Data Matrix code at the top right of the prescription, which encodes the entire prescription, there are up to three smaller codes next to the individual drugs listed. These allow pharmacies to process parts of the e-prescription individually when not all drugs are readily available.
By integrating a Data Matrix Barcode Scanner, you enable users to quickly scan their e-prescriptions. You can then process the prescription yourself or forward it to a pharmacy.
