Compounding Verification System
Ariel introduces Verify, a wireless, bar code-based system that verifies the ingredients used
in compounding. Using a handheld bar code reader, pharmacy staff scans the bar code on the order label printed by your pharmacy information system and then scans each ingredient’s bar code to verify its accuracy. The system guides personnel through the compounding process and facilitates pharmacist verification of technician activities, while maintaining a detailed record of all quality assurance activity to ensure that no orders are missed or incompletely or incorrectly verified. Verify can also be used to monitor and track IV deliveries and returns.
