Healthcare and pharma companies, as well as their solution providers, have implemented, are rolling out, or are trialing RAIN RFID (UHF) and NFC technology. Well-known examples include Bayer, Johnson & Johnson, Becton Dickinson, Biolog-id, Bluesight (which provides Kit Check kit and tray management for over 900 hospitals), Cencora, Fresenius Kabi, Hanmi Pharmaceutical, IFA Celtics Mexico, Kaiser Permanente, Mayo Clinic Laboratories, and Nephron Pharmaceuticals.

These companies use RAIN RFID technology for various applications, including managing the inventory of unit-dose medications for operating rooms, trays and crash carts; tracking medical devices, supplies, blood products and specimens; and more.

In the area of NFC technology, smartphone-based applications are used for the authentication of pharmaceutical products, including anti-counterfeiting and diversion detection, as well as patient adherence and safety management.
