Project description
Automated management of medication prescription, dispensation and distribution
Hospitals, pharmacies and long-term healthcare facilities can face challenges with medication management including accurate prescription, dispensation and distribution. They must ensure adequate but not excess stock, which can result in waste of unused medicines; moreover, errors along the supply chain can have an impact on patient safety. The Iceland-based SME Thula – Nordic Source Solutions has developed MØBIUS, a software solution integrating electronic prescriptions, automated dispensing robots and distribution systems. Compared to manual management, it enhances accuracy and data security while reducing time, cost and resource waste. The EU-funded MOBIUS project will enable the team to add functionalities and conduct a feasibility study of the market including barriers and ways to overcome them.
