Fred.Dispense Features

ScanCheck Rx
PDL research shows over 50% of dispensing incidents are related to selection errors. ScanCheck Rx reduces the likelihood of these errors with a simple scan of the barcode at the labelling stage to alert you to possible selection errors. It is also clever enough to detect if the repeat is from another pharmacy.

Interactive Diary
Ideal for pharmacists who work on different days to pass messages onto each other. this diary allows you to set notes and reminders.

Internet Updates
Downloading of the updates from the internet enables you to receive the updates in a more reliable and timely fashion without relying on the postal service. No more missing or broken disks!!

N.B Internet access is required at the pharmacy for Fred Dispense.

Higher Quality Of Repeats
Fred Dispense produces a higher quality of printed repeats when used in conjunction with a laser printer. Repeats are printed using a range of fonts to highlight vital information such as patient name and drug name. A barcode of the repeat code will also be printed for even faster dispensing.
