6 LIMITLESS Use Cases for QR Codes in Healthcare

They’re everywhere; on our receipts, on windows, on brochures, but just what are these black and white squares with all of the little dots inside? Of course, what I’m referring to is a QR code. Although that question might’ve seemed fairly obvious if I were to ask you a couple of years ago you would’ve had a harder time answering it. LINKS: ____________________________________________ https://etactics.com/blog/qr-codes-in... ____________________________________________ I bet you didn’t know that QR stands for Quick Response, though. While they may all look alike, that is far from accurate. Each one has a distinct and unique pattern within that outer square that will make your eyes cross if you stare at it too long (take my word for it). So what’s the deal with QR codes and why do we see them everywhere? Before the pandemic, many experts viewed them as a fading technology. To be more specific, there was a 110% increase in daily QR code usage in 2020 compared to 2019. In other words, everything contactless grew exponentially in usage during and after the pandemic. Since they’re so popular, it behooves many organizations to incorporate this trend into their experience. Healthcare is at the top of that list. So now that we know all there is to know about QR Codes, let’s dive into how they can exist in healthcare. The options are limitless and make things so much easier! Although that sounds cheesy, it’s an accurate statement. The first use case of qr codes in healthcare is patient verification. From my own experience, every time I donate blood at the Red Cross I fill out all of the questions on their app. Once I’ve done that I am called back to check in and test my blood for low iron. While doing that, I pull up my app and I now have a QR Code they can scan that verifies all of the questions and answers I just finished - talk about a time saver! The second use case I have for you is prescription refills. Have you had a prescription refilled lately? Chances are that there’s a QR Code on the bottle with specific drug safety and administration information about that medication. Codes can also get printed upon admission to the hospital with the patient demographics and allergies so the staff can easily scan them when they need to give medications or verify the information. This can eliminate things like improper diagnosis, patient risks, medication errors, testing errors and boost medication compliance - all of which can carry serious consequences. The third main use case is elderly care. In China, the fear of elderly people becoming disoriented and/or lost while outside turns many people into shut-ins. These elderly individuals can now have a QR Code issued in the form of a badge they can wear as a necklace. Anyone can scan these badges to help a confused wanderer find their way back home. Fourth, patient marketing. QR Codes are ideal for any marketing efforts, and healthcare marketing is no exception. They can exist on brochures, emails, community displays, medical publications and journals. While someone may not want to read through a brochure, they may want to scan a QR Code that would take them to a brief video regarding that brochure. This can help increase the organizations’ visibility, reputation, profit, and even boost appointments. Hospitals and medical clinics can link QR codes with their health management information system. This streamlines workflows and saves a ton of time. They can exist on Medical records, lab results, or anywhere patients may need more information. Fifth, patient payment. What else can a patient do with QR Codes? Well, I’m glad you asked. They can easily and seamlessly pay their bill(s). With a printed code on their statement, invoice or bill, they can scan and pay quickly! Quick - light those revenue rockets. Who wouldn’t want to get paid quicker?! The sixth and final use case for QR codes in healthcare is it’s greener alternative. With all of these ideas, let’s pause for just a minute to think about all those rainforests going paperless in healthcare saves! You provide endless information from a QR Code. That information would have only existed on a physical piece of paper in a brochure format in the past. Therefore, the use of QR Codes can increase and help reduce the environmental impact. Not only will this increase sustainability, but it can help cut down on printing and mailing costs and show the patients that your organization is trying to be “eco-friendly”.
