Real time AIR Integration
In 2018, GuildCare NG integrated with the Australian Immunisation Register
(AIR), enabling pharmacies to submit vaccination services to AIR automatically
in an overnight batch process.
We have now upgraded our integration and completed vaccination services will
be uploaded to AIR in real-time.
GuildCare NG will notify the pharmacy with any issues encountered and provide
steps to resolve the problem in real-time.
