Lean FMD by medAspis knows more. Because we log not just the visible data structures, but many other raw data as well that are generated during FMD requests. This includes, for example, the original code of the read 2D matrix, the complete response code of the NMVS and lots more.
In order to process the raw data directly in their own systems, some customers need access to the unique identifier. This is the data structure that is read directly from the 2D matrix code. With Lean FMD, individual further processing can be carried out without any hassle.
Four basic values are stored in the unique identifier – mostly in GS1 coding, sometimes also in PPN format. In some countries, a fifth value is also important, the so-called national health reimbursement number (nhrn). Lean FMD reliably reads all these values and makes them available for further processing: 
The coding follows the GS1 identification, recognizable by the separated attributes (01), (10), (17) and (21): 
The GS1 attributes identify the four elements of the data set: 
An important note: The special character, shown above as △, is crucial. Some scanners do not read this character correctly – and this leads to incorrect data captures and thus incorrect FMD results. Using the FMD Speed Scanner ensures that this works correctly.
In the three examples, the requests were successful and the status was set to INACTIVE. Within the medAspis system, these data records are processed and saved in the Scan History. The response is immediately sent to the Speed Scanner.
For each individual operation call to the responsible NMVS, response time will be measured.
The legal requirement is 300 milliseconds for 90% of the transactions processed. Based on the data we generate, you can determine for yourself whether your NMVS complies with these specifications.
We know from experience that on Monday mornings in particular, this value is not always adhered to. Plus, retrievals from other European countries are much slower than the target value.

Is your FMD Speed Scanner no longer working? To ensure you can continue working without interruption, we will send you a replacement device as quickly as possible. At the same time, you will receive a return label for sending back your defective device.
You will receive the replacement unit regardless of whether your warranty is still valid.
Do you suspect counterfeiting? Our medAspis Alert Team will assist you with the process. We are also happy to assist you with unclear error messages or unfamiliar situations.
Describe the incident using the report form. If needed, you can upload up to three photos. We will contact you as soon as possible and support you with the next steps.
Companies in the pharmaceutical industry are validated and meet strict quality requirements. Nevertheless, there is still a significant compliance risk with FMD.
Suspected falsification cases may not be handled and documented in a GxP-compliant manner.
With our free, anonymous and non-binding Compliance Check-up, we analyse and assess your company’s critical FMD error messages.
Based on your existing FMD audit trails, we analyse among other things:
The analysis is performed entirely within your data system. No data is transmitted to medAspis. All evaluations remain anonymous.
Download the error messages directly to your computer in your local language.
Can’t find your language? As soon as you become a customer, we’ll of course provide the error messages in your local language. Promise.
