Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, RFID helps support compliance by providing detailed audit trails, inventory records, and reporting for regulatory and accreditation requirements.

Yes, RFID medication management systems are built with healthcare-grade security standards to protect sensitive data and ensure system reliability.

RFID captures dozens of medications in seconds — no line of sight, no manual scanning. That changes the economics of inventory: charts that used to require a clipboard or a staff member to scan each vial happen passively in the background, all the time.

Mira Prep automates kit and tray building in your central pharmacy or distribution center. Every medication is RFID-tagged and validated in a single scan, reducing tray restocking time by over 60% and eliminating manual lot/expiration checks.

Yes, by improving inventory accuracy, reducing waste, and supporting enterprise purchasing strategies, RFID can contribute to meaningful cost savings over time.

Many organizations see operational improvements such as reduced labor and improved inventory accuracy within weeks or months of implementation.

No, RFID systems are designed to integrate into existing pharmacy and clinical workflows with minimal disruption. Implementation typically includes planning, training, and a phased rollout to ensure success.

Most RFID medication management solutions with EMRs, pharmacy information systems, and other hospital technologies to support seamless data flow and reporting.

No, quite the opposite. RFID is designed to remove manual steps from medication workflows, allowing clinicians and pharmacy teams to spend less time managing inventory and more time focused on patient care.

Barcoding requires line-of-sight scanning and manual workflows. RFID allows multiple items to be read automatically without opening drawers or scanning each item individually, saving time and reducing human errors.

The 2026 State of Pharmacy Automation report suggests that 39% of hospitals currently use RFID.

No, active versus passive. What Intelliguard offers is passive. Note that our patented technology is proven to have a 99.7% read accuracy rate, while traditional barcodes have about 60%.

Tracks medications from pharmacy to point of care. Used by pharmacists, clinicians, C-suite, and supply chain management.

RFID-based medication management uses small RFID tags and smart cabinets to automatically track medications in real-time. This technology helps healthcare organizations improve medication visibility, reduce waste, prevent errors, and ensure the right medication is available at the right time.

RFID helps address common challenges such as medication shortages and stockouts, expired or missing medications, manual inventory counts, inefficient restocking workflows, limited visibility across departments or facilities, and compliance and audit readiness.

By providing real-time visibility into medication inventory and expiration dates, RFID helps ensure clinicians have access to safe, in-date medication. It also reduces the risk of medication errors caused by missing, expired, or incorrect drugs.

Yes, RFID is especially valuable for managing high-value, high-risk, and specialty medications by improving tracking accuracy, reducing waste, and supporting tighter controls.

Yes, Intelliguard offers both. We have multiple RFID read points (hardware) across the medication supply chain (main pharmacy, OR/procedural areas, specialty pharmacy, centralized distribution, etc.). We also offer a software data analytics platform that collects all the medication RFID-tag data (99.7% accurate), allowing hospitals to make informed business decisions regarding inventory management, forecasting trends, anomaly detection, etc.

Intelliguard offers multiple RFID read points (main pharmacy, OR/procedural areas, specialty pharmacy, centralized distribution, etc.) across the medication supply chain. Intelliguard maintains a very high standard for accuracy in read states (99.7%).
