3. Serialization: vision of the Business Producer
The first withdrawal registering device was tested in Moscow only in August 2019.
Producer
Medical Institutions
Withdrawal registration procedure takes 1-3 min
Low readiness despite of the pilot project with high-cost nosologies
Wholesaler
Finished product code downloading to the scan system may slow down the production
% of packaging defects increase
Pharmacies
Serialization of products sold in primary packaging an issue still
Slowing down of the orders processing
Weak Internet coverage
Most manufacturers are reporting the readiness by January 1, 2020
Reverse acceptance as a necessary temporary measure
Slow down of orders reception from the wholesaler
High readiness level declared by the majority of TOP 5 distributors
Lack of sufficient information from the operator and authorized regional bodies.

4. Serialization: Bosnalijek experience
The need to put a code on manufactured products as early as 2019, without registering them in the system (Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of December 14, 2018 No. 1557)
“... drug circulation entities that are manufacturers of drugs ... ensure the application of drug identification means on the primary packaging of the drug (if secondary packaging is not provided) and on the secondary (consumer) packaging of the drug from October 1, 2019 ”
Reduction of the crypto part from 88 to 44 characters by Decree No of August 30, 2019 does not allow to complete software setup and printing equipment by October 01, 2019
An increase in the packaging size of one of Bosnalijek key products was required for high-quality serialization, which entailed additional regulatory and marketing costs and COG increase
