QR codes for healthcare
Privacy by design: no PHI in QR payload, SHA-256 IP hashing, configurable retention. HIPAA-aware implementation is a customer responsibility — ensure your hosting and authentication meet your local regulatory requirements.
Clinic intake forms
A QR in the waiting room or on appointment confirmation links to your intake form. Patients complete on their own phone — no shared clipboards. Authenticated submission required.
Prescription instructions
A QR on prescription labels links to the patient leaflet, dosing instructions, and contraindications — translated to the patient's language.
Multilingual patient leaflets
Conditional redirects route by phone language, so a single QR on every leaflet serves the right translation automatically.
Post-discharge follow-up
A QR on discharge paperwork links to follow-up appointment booking, symptom-check forms, and care-instruction videos.
How it works
- 1
Generate QRs that point to short URLs
Each QR encodes only a short redirect — no patient data in the QR itself. Sensitive destinations sit behind authentication.
- 2
Print on labels, signage, or paperwork
Export at high contrast for label printers and discharge paperwork. Codes work on phone cameras at typical patient distances.
- 3
Configure retention and access
Set analytics retention to match your regulatory obligations. Use WordPress capabilities to gate sensitive destinations behind authenticated patient portals.
Frequently asked questions
How does QRCode Suite handle IP addresses?
QRCode Suite never stores raw IP addresses. Before any scan event is recorded, the IP is hashed with SHA-256 plus a random per-installation salt. The original IP cannot be recovered from the hash.
Does QRCode Suite filter bot traffic?
Yes. QRCode Suite includes a bot detection library that filters 25+ known bot and crawler patterns before recording scan events, so your analytics reflect real human scans.
Is QRCode Suite compliant with GDPR?
QRCode Suite is designed with GDPR compliance in mind: IP addresses are hashed, raw IPs are never stored, data retention is configurable, and all data stays on your server. Consult your legal team for your specific compliance obligations.
Can I configure how long scan data is retained?
Yes. The Privacy Settings panel lets you set a retention window. Data older than the configured window is purged automatically.
Does QRCode Suite use cookies?
QRCode Suite does not set cookies on the front end. Analytics are server-side only, using hashed IPs and optional session tokens.
